Using the new and improved installation of the Learning Plug-In for IBM Lotus Notes, you can easily deploy the Learning Plug-in to groups of users. For detailed steps to deploy a plug-in using the Widgets Catalog, refer to the Deploying client plug-ins with widgets and the widget catalog topic in Lotus Domino and Notes Information Center.

Here is a high-level overview of the process.
  1. Create a server-based Widgets Catalog, and include the widget for the Learning Plug-In for IBM Lotus Notes in the catalog in an appropriate category (for example, "Learning")/
  2. Create or modify a Desktop Policy Settings document indicating the Widgets Catalog server name, file name, and categories to push to users' desktops (for example, the "Learning" category specified for the Learning Plug-In in the Widgets Catalog). This will update the user's Preferences to include the catalog and category from which to get plug-ins as shown in the following figure:
