David, Thanks for all your responses. I have followed your suggestion to test it, but still feel confused. 1. I create two users A and B. 2. I give both of them j1 profile. 3. I create two folders named a and b in %J2_HOME%\WEB-INF\pages\_user\ 4. I put default-page.psml into both of above folders. It is like this: pages _user a\default-page.psml (page owner a) pages _user b\default-page.psml (page owner b) 5. I login as user A, enter the edit mode and remove a portlet from page. It will not affect user B's default-page.psml. So I think they are not shared pages, they are private pages. Is that right?
6. There is iframe portlet on both of user A's default-page.psml and user B's default-page.psml. I change iframe portlet's src preference on user A's default-page.psml. when I login as user B and view his own default-page.psml, I found the iframe portlet's src preference is the same as user A's. Am I doing something wrong? What I want to see is the preference change of user A's portlet will not be reflected to user B. Could you please give me more detail about what is a shared page and what is a private page?
