Modifying MySite template - MOSS 2007

This question was asked over in the wrong forum, but I figured that I'd beat Jens to reposting it.

How can a farm administrator, or SSP administrator I suppose, modify the shared view of all users so that they are able to place new webparts across all MySite pages. I realize that there is a different between the MySite and the personal site.

Hi All,

yes, used a wrong folder. Thanks for picking up my question. But I'm asking not only for updating the public but also for private view. Will modify both and store it as company wide mySite template.

Following my original question: <how can I update the default template for new mySites After studying the "Office SharePoint Server 2007 Administrator's Companion" I see only a programaticly approach (the Object model). Is there any possibility for customers to modify and "save as default" > or to modify by SharePoint Designer (SPD)

Thanks in advance,
Jens

Give this a try, it looks like it could be what you're (we're) looking for. I haven't had a chance to look through it too much, but I'm looking for the same thing. I'm in a sharepoint class right now, and as soon as the lecture is over, I'm going to ask them about the same thing.

Hi Sleet,

the link you sent descibes a solution for customizing templates in SPS2003. Did you have the chance to test if it's relevant for MOSS2007 as well

Thanks and Kind regards,
Jens
