How can I change the Confluence On Demand Dashboard?

Question

I have gone into admin settings and changed the homepage.

But I still get sent to the dashboard unless I'm freshly logged in. We find the Dashboard, particularly the recent updates macro, to be noisy and not useful. Who cares that I uploaded a picture?

Why would the one page that I visit the most frequently be the least configurable?

How can I change the dashboard to be something useful?  This is a potential dealbreaker.

John, I believe you can change the Confluence OnDemand dashboard to be the homepage of a Space, for example. To change that you just have to access the 'General Configuration' through the following link:

- https://YOUR.INSTANCE.URL/wiki/admin/viewgeneralconfig.action

and click on the 'Edit' button at the bottom of the page. Then, under the 'Site Configuration' tab, you'll find 'Site Homepage' option.

Hope it helps.

Cheers,
