and now i get this dolphin for each user :


http://wstaw.org/m/2011/04/14/plasma-desktopmR1570.jpg

i would like customize even the folder on the "Places" panel for each user

if anybody can tell me where i could get information documentation

I believe the configuration file /etc/kde4rc may have something to do with this. Also, try searching on techbase.kde.org for more information concerning system wide customisation of the setup.

rc files for user config are stored only in user homes. Default settings are stored in kcfg files.
The file you're looking for is share/config.kcfg/dolphin_directoryviewpropertysettings.kcfg
