Hi!

I want to show followings in the mahara front page.

1. public view list (random 10) -displayed by profile icons. When the icons is clicked, a user directed to the view.

2. group list (random 10)- displayed by group profile icons. When the icons is clicked, a user directed to the group

3. user list (random 10) -displayed by user profile icons. When the icons is clicked,  directed to the user's profile view.

I may do this manually for a static front page. But I want to make a dynamic front page.

Thanks.

Mahara 1.2 has some sample code that might be helpful to get you started.  If you look at htdocs/index.php, the part that starts "if ($nviews = get_config('homepageviewlist'))" is a configuration setting that displays recently modified views on the front page.

We'll be taking this out for Mahara 1.3 because the logged-in home page is going to be a new view called the dashboard which users can modify themselves.
