How to apply changes to the dashboard template to all existing users dashboards in EPP 5?
Issue
We deployed the first version of our portal with three pages, and it works great. With the second release, we added another page. We updated the portal config files, but the new page is not available to existing users.
My observation is that when a user logs into the system, the portal inserts a bunch of records into the JCR data store, and these records are based on the portal config at the time the user was created. Subsequent changes to the portal config (like the addition of a new cash page) aren’t automatically merged into an existing user’s records. New users, on the other hand, are created from the current config (which includes the new page), and hence, they can see the new page.
