In Confluence, you can define only one global homepage. The Homepage Redirect add-on takes it one step further: Administrators can assign unique homepages to several individual user groups. As soon as a user accesses Confluence he or she gets redirected to the homepage according to his or her own user group. The page displayed matches the pre-defined design settings of that Confluence homepage. This makes the Homepage Redirect add-on most valuable to all customers with tailored Confluence color schemes and/or third-party skins and themes.
The Homepage Redirect add-on works great with our Enterprise Theme.
