Hi Michael,
Thank you for your reply. Yes, I was asking for personalization based on user behavior. Does Lenya has features for giving recommendations for users by analyzing user behavior such as user activity history, user clicks, what user has searched so far, etc. For example, in Amazon like e-commerce applications support rich recommendations for search queries and suggestions on "log in". If Lenya is not supporting this kind of features can we develop it as a custom module for Lenya source? I am grateful to you if you can give me some ideas regarding this.

you might have a look at

http://easyrec.org/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Easyrec

and how they developed a custom module for Drupal

http://drupal.org/node/1049712

I guess something similar could be done for Lenya.

Also some time ago we have started the development of "Boost"

http://www.wyona.com/en/White_Paper_-_Yanel_Boost_-_Online_Business_Development_Engine.pdf

which is even more user oriented than easyrec.

A prototype implementation has been done for Yanel, e.g.

http://svn.wyona.com/repos/public/yanel/trunk/src/contributions/resources/personalized-content

If you have a look at this stuff then you will see that the analysis of click streams and the profile management can be done independent of the CMS (think of Google analytics), but that the CMS will access the "recommendation engine" for specific user interests and then for example create a personalized homepage, e.g. in the case of a "Newspaper": If the click stream analysis shows that you are interested in movies, then the movie reviews can be moved to the top of the page.

Cheers

Michael



Thanks.

        Hi devs,

             I am an undergraduate from University of Moratuwa Sri
        Lanka.I am new to Apache Lenya and I downloaded the source
        files and tried the default publications given. I like to
        contribute to the project and would like to know whether
        Apache Lenya is having web personalization modules developed.
        Since I am interested in that area I would like to read more
        about personalization field in Lenya.


    What kind of personalization are you thinking of? For example
    personalized content based on
    user profile/behaviour?

    Thanks

    Michael

        Can any of you give me any idea in this regard?

        Thank you.
