By default, when you log into PEER, you're taken to the "Home" dashboard page that looks like this:
The exception to this would be if you are following a link from an email, in which you might be taken directly to a page where you need to take some action (approve something, etc.)
If you primarily interact with one module in PEER more than others, you may want to set it as your default module. Once you set a default module, that module's home page will be where you are taken after login. To get back to the Dashboard Home you would need to click "Home" from the menu-bar and then click "Home" again from the list of module options that appear in the drop-down.
To set your default module, first click on your name in the upper right corner next to the log out button:
On the next screen, select your desired default module from the available choices and click the green "save" button.
That's it! Next time you log in, you'll be taken directly to that module rather than the page with all the colorful boxes.
To restore default behavior, edit your user account again and select "Home-Default" as your default module.
