[SOLVED] How do I change the redirect on the Available Views screen?
I am looking for the HTML file to change the redirect of the logoff button on the Available Views screen in the BI Dashoboard. It looks like the file name is worpbannerlogoff, but I can seem to find it.This message has been edited. Last edited by: <Kathryn Henning>,

If I understand what you're asking, you do not need to edit special files. You can change the settings of the BI Dashboard View with the Dashboard View Builder. It's in the settings for the view, all the way down at the bottom of the settings page.
quote:
The Redirects pane contains the Redirect context type drop-down menu and the Redirect URL text box. When users log off from a view, they are redirected to the Welcome Page by default. You can redirect users to a different logoff window by selecting context-redirect or x-redirect from the Redirect context type drop-down list and entering the desired URL in the Redirect URL field. The context-redirect option is the default setting and is used to add additional segments to the default redirect URL to redirect a user to a different URL inside the application context upon logoff. The x-redirect option is used to redirect a user to a fully qualified URL outside the application. For more information, see Customizing the Logoff Window.
I have the redirects set for my custom dashboards. What I am asking is the first screen that a user comes to when selecting the dashboard feature or after the login page is a list of avalible views. at the top of this page is a "logoff" button. how do I redirect this?

That is I believe in the Bid-config.xml. It is documented on how to do in one of the tech docs. I just looked at it the other day.
Look at the MRadmin document Chapter 6 tells you how to do it for all views.This message has been edited. Last edited by: <Kathryn Henning>,

Just in case any one else is looking here are the instructions:
Procedure: How to Customize the Logoff Window for All Views 1. In the \ibi\WebFOCUS77\worp\conf directory, open the bid-config.xml file in a text editor. 2. Search for the string logoff-success and then comment out the lines immediately below it, beginning with Add "< !--" to begin the comment and "-->" to end the comment, as shown below. < !-- -->
3. Add the following line below the closing comment tag (-->): where: my_url Specifies the URL. Your code should now look similar to this: < !--
-->
The x-redirect the URL is set to http://www.informationbuilders.com so when a user selects the Logoff link in the banner, the user is disconnected from Dashboard and the Information Builders Web site opens. 4. Save and close the bid-config.xml file.
