Start the Tridion R5 GUI in your task list

Introduction

For customers using workflow, it might make sense to start Content Manager Explorer in the workflow task list rather than the splash screen. This article explains how this can be done.

Prerequisites

Administrator rights on the Tridion R5 system

1. Uncheck Default Starting Page

Navigate to the Custom Pages node in Content Manager Explorer (CME)
Open the properties of all Custom Pages, and make sure the Default Starting Page checkbox is unchecked for all.

Result

Log in to the CME and you are brought to the task list automatically.
