Adding content to dashboard of liferay user other than admin

I am new to using Liferay, and practicing currently on Liferay DXP. I have created various user, and wanted to add different content to dashboard of any user. Such as asset publisher which will list all the assets published by that user. I am able to add this modified content only for Admin User. I am not able to find any setting where I can change the look and feel of dashboard for every user.
Can anyone please help me where I can find it? It might be pretty simple but I am unable to find it.
Thank you in advance for helping me.
You can look at the ADT. Modify the templates as per requirement and on user roles. You won't be able to deliver content as per individual user but to roles. You can also have portlet preferences to show different content on different criteria. This all is possible. You will have to study the subject more. It will be very difficult to detail out the whole stuff here. But yes with ADT in Liferay 7 / DXP you have a lot of flexibility.

Possibly to copy files from one farm to another in SharePoint?

I would be doing this from a custom workflow activity.
Does anyone know if this has been done before? Any suggestions on where to start?
I am an admin on both farms.
I'd suggest you look into using the Copy web service provided by SharePoint
/_vti_bin/copy.asmx
Use web client and copy.asmx check this link might help http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointdevelopment/thread/4556873e-e2e0-4b26-99f2-70f0b0e50c2c

Extend sharepoint peopleeditor control

I would like to customize wss peopleeditor control so it searches user profiles by job title or some other property than login name. Can anybody provide me with some hint or maybe tutorial for something like this?
Thanks in advance
Below link might be useful to you.
Customize MOSS People Picker (PeopleEditor) Control
Also if you would like to replace all current (those built into SharePoint pages) PeopleEditor controls with your custom ones, you may want to see Guest blog by NaT - SharePoint People Picker: Override Validation Logic

Can you integrate a custom help desk application into SharePoint?

I know next to nothing about SharePoint, so maybe this isn't something you can/should do, or maybe it's something completely trivial, I don't know, but we have a custom in-house help desk application at work, and I'm wondering if it can be integrated into our help desk SharePoint site somehow?
I really don't know what's possible with SharePoint, so any ideas or thoughts on this matter would be appreciated.
The short answer is yes but the amount of time required to make this work will be directly related to your flexibility / needs. Would you be satisfied with default SharePoint lists / forms? Do you need to retrieve and update data hosted in an external source? Do you really need this integrated with SharePoint or simply hosted under the same URL?
I've found that SharePoint can do anything but the time required to make it meet the needs of a demanding/inflexible business user is sometimes significant.
There is also the issue of doing right or simply making it work. Making it work buys you some time initially but you can easily dig yourself a very deep hole that is difficult to escape. My suggestion is to keep the solution as simple and maintainable as possible.
Pretty much anything that can go on a webform can go in a webpart - with obvious complications, but yes it would work. Look into webpart development.
I would try to stick to the features that SharePoint is already offering you. You can achieve a lot by using them, and enriching them with a few simple workflows.
If you want to add some workflow logic to your solution, then try to avoid the designer workflows, since they have some issues when it comes to deployment(in short: you cant). So even if it looks easier to design them in Designer, you will pay a price later when you want to deploy them to production (You have a staging/development enviroment?)
In general I would also agree with mayos answer
Anything is possible...but check out the MSDN reference for integrating with SharePoint:
Integration with Office SharePoint Server
