First, I don't know, if there's a better approach for your scenario, because you need the selection just after login - the PortalCommandFactory is called frequently... I extended:org.jboss.portal.core.model.portal.DefaultPortalCommandFactory for translating symbolic page names into real page names (information hiding) e.g. for news letter links to jump directly onto a portal page. An example of how to use the different Commands (ViewPortalCommand, ViewPageCommand, ...) is given in: org.jboss.portal.core.aspects.controller.PageCustomizerInterceptor View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4110143#...
