[Zope-CMF] Re: Copy folder contents on first login?

[Ignacio Valdes]

Hi! Thanks for the reply. I customized login_initial before I came 
across createMemberDefault. Which one is preferred? It has been a long 
time so it isn't clear to me from what I read how (and/or where?) you 
put createMemberDefault. Is it a dtml method? If so, where should it 
reside?

Instead I customized login_initial to the following which doesn't work 
so well because the new id has to be a Manager to work:

if context.validate_email:
     state.set(status='login_change_password')
# Copy the default tree into their user space.
REQUEST=context.REQUEST
portal_properties = context.portal_properties
portal_registration = context.portal_registration

default_user = 'default_doc' #name of member folder where your default 
user docs are kept.

# username = context.REQUEST.username

username=context.portal_membership.getAuthenticatedMember().getId()

uf = container.portal_membership.getHomeFolder(username)

#XXXobject.manage_permission('View',('Manager','Member','Owner',),acquire=0)
#give the roles in the list the permission to Add Documents, etc... 
 for that folder.
#listofroles = ['Member', 'Owner','Manager']

#I don't quite understand why the script runs proxy as manager, yet 
one still must give anonymous the following permissions?
listofroles = ['Anonymous']
uf.manage_permission('Add Documents, Images, and Files', listofroles, 
acquire=1)
uf.manage_permission('Add portal content', listofroles, acquire=1)
uf.manage_permission('Delete objects', listofroles, acquire=1)

user_defaults = 
container.portal_membership.getHomeFolder(default_user)

#obs = 
container.user_defaults.manage_copyObjects(container.user_defaults.objectIds())
obs = user_defaults.manage_copyObjects(user_defaults.objectIds())

uf.manage_pasteObjects(obs)

return state
