Each policy has a "Feature This Policy on the Main Page" checkbox.

Is there a way to have an entire category show up on the main page?

I checked the admin guide, I searched JAMF Nation, I used Google-Fu...

TIA
Don

No, I don't think so. Best you can do is make sure anything you want featured is checked to be on the feature page and leave the other policies in their respective categories.

Funny you should mention that. I loved the ability of putting things in categories, but....

For every self service item, I had to go back in and checked "Feature This Policy on the Main Page". I did that after our support staff said that people didn't know to click on the Categories, and so user's couldn't find anything.

I think this would be a good feature request, to have a button that "Shows all available" within Self Service.

Thanks @mm2270, that's what I was afraid of. :(

@jhalvorson that's exactly the reason I was asking. :) We use Self Service for printers more than anything else, and we'd love users to be taken directly to that category when logging in to Self Service.

What I don't get is that we have two categories, and both have items set up the same way, but only one category shows up in the main page, the other does not. They both show up on the right side under the Categories list.
