A non admin user can go to dashboard and configure his own dashboard. Dashboard is available to all authenticated users, and every authenticated user can configure his dashboard by clicking "configure dashboard" link. According to out of box feature available in JBP, a portal named "template" (defined in default-object.xml and can be modified from admin-portlet) gets copied to every user's dashboard when user logs in first time. After that each user can configure(personalize) their own dashboard. View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4226774#...
