The attribute is created within the Manage System > Advanced > Attributes page under the
Create Attribute section and given a name, for example, 'myNetHome' and a label 'My Network
Home'. Selecting the Edit action for this attribute allows the Category to be set to 'Network
Places'.
2.
The Network Place is then created. Enter the required path and then click the ${} button next to
the Path field and select 'userAttributes:myNetHome' from the list; giving e.g.
smb://examplepath.com/users/${attr:myNetHome}
3.
When this is executed the system replaces the ${attr:myNetHome} with the user attribute value.
4.
Each user is now able to define this attribute, specifying the value to use when creating their
Network Place e.g. RobertsP. The new 'My Network Home' attribute will appear in the Network
Places section under My Account > Attributes.
Every time the Network Place is launched, the system dynamically takes the value of ‘My Network
Home’ from the logged in user and replaces the ${attr:myNetHome} parameter in the path. So for
each user this will load their respective home share. In the example this would give:
smb://examplepath.com/users/ RobertsP
