When entering the link of the portal in the address bar of the browser without defining a specific portal (e.g. _localhost\:8080/portal/_), you will be directed to a default portal.

To configure the default portal, the portal must already exist first. Then, you just use the _NewPortalConfigListener_ plugin as the sample code below.

To use this plugin in the component configuration, you must use the following target-component:
{code:xml}<target-component>org.exoplatform.portal.config.UserPortalConfigService</target-component>{code}

The sample code below is the configuration of the portal named "_default_".
{code:xml}<external-component-plugins>
		<target-component>org.exoplatform.portal.config.UserPortalConfigService</target-component>
		<component-plugin>
			<name>default.portal.config.user.listener</name>
			<set-method>initListener</set-method>
			<type>org.exoplatform.portal.config.NewPortalConfigListener</type>
			<description>this listener init the portal configuration</description>
			<init-params>
				<value-param>
					<name>default.portal</name>
					<description>The default portal for checking db is empty or not</description>
					<value>default</value>
				</value-param>
				<object-param>
					....
				</object-param>
			</init-params>
		</component-plugin>
</external-component-plugins>{code}

*Init-param*

|default.portal|String|default| The name of the default portal to which you are redirected when accessing the portal.|
