Here's one way that's pretty simple. Create the file
$RTHOME/local/html/Elements/Links
-----------------------
<&|/Widgets/TitleBox,
title => loc("Links") &>
<b>Linkage</b>
<!-- insert some html links here -->
</&>
<%init>
</%init>
-----------------------
Then edit your $RTHOME/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm file and add the line:
Set( $HomepageComponents, [qw(QuickCreate Quicksearch MyAdminQueues
MySupportQueues MyReminders RefreshHomepage Dashboards Links)]);
Then you can go into Configuration, Global, RT-at-a-glance and you'll
see the item "Links" which you can now add to the homepage for
everyone.
