Hi,
I would like to change the dashboard login view. I would like to create a link which would automatically redirect me to the login page instead of showing the various groups. Depending on who logs in, the various applications/groups available to the user has to be shown. Is this possible>?

K.,

This is what you should do :

  
Redirect user to his own group-view



Information on how to set up the Dashboard so a user will log in automatically
to a group view is listed below:

  1. Edit bid-config.xml using a text editor.
  2. Search for the string login-success
  3. You will see the following code:

<response-redirect request-context="login-success">
  <context-redirect url="&JSP;/WORP_LoginSuccess.jsp"/>
  <!--<context-redirect
url="&JSP;/performance_management_framework/WORP_MultiViewPerformanceManagement
Framework.jsp"/>-->
    <!--<context-redirect
url="&JSP;/performance_management_framework/WORP_SingleViewPerformanceManagemen
tFramework.jsp"/>-->
  </response-redirect>
 
Change into :

 
  <!--  Configure this redirect to go to a different page than Dashboard's
default upon successful login
  -->
  <response-redirect request-context="login-success">
    <!--<context-redirect url="&JSP;/WORP_LoginSuccess.jsp"/>-->
    <!--<context-redirect
url="&JSP;/performance_management_framework/WORP_MultiViewPerformanceManagement
Framework.jsp"/>-->
    <context-redirect
url="&JSP;/performance_management_framework/WORP_SingleViewPerformanceManagemen
tFramework.jsp"/>
  </response-redirect>

Hi K,

this is done again in the bid-config file

change :
  
  <response-redirect request-context="logoff-success">
    <context-redirect url="&REDIRECT;" hrefs-per-row="5">
      <href src="&MPV;" text="mpvHREFTextShort" context-asset="true" localize-text="true"/>
      <href src="&GBV;" text="gbvHREFTextShort" context-asset="true" localize-text="true"/>
      <href src="&LOGIN;" text="loginHREFTextShort" context-asset="true" localize-text="true"/>
      <href src="&INDEX;" text="indexHREFTextShort" context-asset="true" localize-text="true"/>
    </context-redirect>
  </response-redirect>

into 

  <response-redirect request-context="logoff-success">
   <!--
    <context-redirect url="&REDIRECT;" hrefs-per-row="5">
      <href src="&MPV;" text="mpvHREFTextShort" context-asset="true" localize-text="true"/>
      <href src="&GBV;" text="gbvHREFTextShort" context-asset="true" localize-text="true"/>
      <href src="&LOGIN;" text="loginHREFTextShort" context-asset="true" localize-text="true"/>
      <href src="&INDEX;" text="indexHREFTextShort" context-asset="true" localize-text="true"/>
    </context-redirect>
   -->
   <x-redirect url="http://www.randstad.be"/>
  </response-redirect>


In our case the user is redirected back to our homepage www.randstad.be

Hope it helps

P.

What is the URL that you are talking about. I use
http://webserver/ibi_apps/bid-login and I am getting the following message

Error occurred.
ERROR: ERROR_MR_CANT_OPEN_DOMAIN_FOR_USER Can't open domain untitled/untitled.htm for user .

Any ideas?

NewToFocus,


I assume that you only have a public view ,if so does the public group have access to that domain ?

You will have to check this in your webfocus MRE Administration

Click on "Options" link in the "Post A Reply" window and select the "Disable HTML" checkbox.

I think this should work on a previously posted reply if it's edited by the original poster.

...href src="&INDEX;" text="indexHREFTextShort" context-asset="true" localize-text="true"/...
.../context-redirect...

...x-redirect url="http://machinename/appname/app/index.htm"/...

I emailed Peter a while back and suggested hosting this document somewhere for people to download themselves. To that end the document is available here.

Please note that it is as supplied by Peter and thanks must go to him for preparing it.
