instructions on knowledge base
There are complete instructions if you login to support and under the knowledge base search on "default bookmark channel" It's RN-715. Basically, if they have not already created or changed the channel, then the default is used. You can change the default by doing the following (taken from the support info):
* Login to luminis as a user of your choosing
*Edit the bookmarks channel for that user to match what you want the default for all new users to be
* Logout
* Open the UP_USER table on the database server used for Luminis
* Locate the USER_ID for the user you used in the first step
* Open the UPC_BOOKMARKS table on the database server used for luminis
* Locate the record with the user_id found in the steps above
* copy the bookmarks_xml field from that user to the bookmarks_xml field of the record with user_id 0 (zero).
From my own notes of when we did this, bookmark_xml is LONG type and will be chopped off unless you say:
SET LONG 32000
select bookmark_xml from upc_bookmarks where portal_user_id = '21';
(where 21 is the user that I had modified and has the new default bookmarks)
I then put the update statement in a file named tt.sql because of the carriage
returns. Contents of file tt.sql:
update upc_bookmarks set bookmark_xml='everything from the select above'
where portal_user_id = '0';
Then ran it in sql using the @tt
sql>@tt
We changed ours to be a link to our university and then a link to a help page that tells how to change the bookmarks.

i need more information
currently i do not have any experience with luminis.
sorry but the data before your mail are not similar with my system.
i have only one user in the table up_user "admin" and the user_id is no similar at upc_bookmarks table (portal_user_id)
probably all my steps are bad. Could you help me please?.
Thank´s
setup another user possibly
I'm definitely not a luminis expert as we've only been up a few months. We were a WIN client so Sungard did our luminis installation for us. By the time I got to it we had several users in addition to admin. We had the student-lo, employee-lo, etc for doing the role layouts and quite a few others that I can't think of off hand. I created an account for myself with the admin user and then gave myself admin rights and started logging in as myself instead of the admin user. My account was the 21 number. The 21 number represents the userid of whatever account you create the default bookmarks with. So probably create an account for yourself and then modify your bookmark channel to what you would like others to see as the default. Then find out what your userid is and proceed with the steps.

problem with “Bookmarks”, “Bookmarks Plus
i did the change but we do not have solution.
i come in at the table upc_bookmarks, and i can modify the file bookmark_xml for the user 0 admin (he user is the general dad).
but when i see the change on the page this change does not exist.
If did the change in the user 0, i should see the change in all users?
what can i do to see the dad users?
I wait your comments.

copy to other users
I want to say you have to copy the bookmark info to the rest of the users. I can't remember if they have something once they login or if they had to try to change their bookmarks. We were still at the beginning of testing and I believe I copied the file to all of the users since we didn't have any real ones at that point anyway. If you login as someone who has never logged in before, do you have the new bookmark info? If so then you've done everything correctly and now you need to overwrite the bookmark info for those that had the default already setup for them.
good process
i did the change for the file xml of the user syste 0.
after i do a user and i can see the change to the new user. now i will to change the xml to the firsts users.
Thanks.
One can use the Edit Bookmark Defaults channel
In our environment, we have a channel called Edit Bookmark Defaults that points to class com.sct.pipeline.uportal.channels.bookmarks.DefaultsEditor. Whatever bookmarks go into that channel establish the user 0 records in the database. Changing those records does not affect any existing subscriptions to the Bookmarks or Bookmarks Plus channels.
