28 November 2011
In SharePoint 2010 publishing site you can choose the default page for that site. In the following example I will show you how you can change the default page of publishing site by using PowerShell.
$site = get-spsite "http:// site URL”
$pub = [Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PublishingWeb] :: GetPublishingWeb($site.RootWeb)
$file = $pub.Web.GetFile("Pages/New_DefaultPage.aspx")
$pub.DefaultPage = $file
$pub.Update()
