Marc,
If I understand this correctly, I would have a folder object that I created
called "user_defaults" at some level, which would contain all the default
objects I would like added to the new users directory upon creation. So, I
could add a default type of "image" with an id of "myImage" and it will be
placed in the users directory. Also, any other items I place in there will
be copied into the users directory.
Is this correct? If so, where do I place the "user_default" folder object?
It appears that would go in the root of the portal. Correct?
Wait, as I read your description I understand to place this script in the
default directory as well. I guess I need a bit more understanding of where
the objects are and where I can put this. I think places it in the afteradd
is a better place. I glanced over the register.dtml and it would be safer
to make this call after the registration is complete.
If you could give me a slight more help that would be great. I'd even
write up the how-to if you like. That would be great for me to learn this
better anyway.
Sorry for all the questions just starting to understand the layout of CMF
and learn the Python syntax.
Thanks for the help and suggestion. I can see that this is what I want to
do. I would like to make a generate entry so I could place this anywhere
and have it managed from the interface.
Regards,
Josh

I did this, and was going to put together a how-to, haven't had time yet.
But basically, in register.dtml, called this script
(createUserDefaults.pys), which I'll put below. Modified registered.dtml
also, so that I could print a result string from the function (optional
geekiness). Also, the .pys had to have a proxy role of owner in order to
work. Here's the pythonscript (the lines will probably be wrapped in the
wrong place...):
#copy stuff from user_defaults to user folder, build default mypic image
#depends on folder user_defaults with everything there copied
#and an image user_default_mypic both in the same folder as this script
#
uf = container.portal_membership.getHomeFolder(username)
uf.manage_permission('Add Documents, Images, and Files',
['Anonymous','Member', 'Owner','Manager','Reviewer'], 1)
uf.manage_permission('Add portal content', ['Anonymous',
'Member','Owner','Manager','Reviewer'], 1)
obs
=container.user_defaults.manage_copyObjects(container.user_defaults.objectId
s())
uf.manage_pasteObjects(obs)
#uf.mypic.manage_setLocalRoles(username, ['Owner'])
#change this one back, since we're operating in a known, limited situation
uf.manage_permission('Add Documents, Images, and Files', [], 1)
uf.manage_permission('Add portal content', [], 1)
return 'Set up ' + `uf.getId()` +' with default content '+
`container.user_defaults.objectIds()`
