Anyone know where I can find the code for the basic BI Dashboard login page? Same for the log out and change password pages.

I want to customize the look/feel while keeping the basic functionality, but I can't seem to find the code (on a linux install).

Hi Paul,

de jsp file is located in D:\ibi\WebFOCUS53\webapps\webfocus53\worp\jsp

and in D:\ibi\WebFOCUS53\ibi_html\images are the images that ibi uses for his login screen

We replaced the images by our company look and feel images .

We also took away the change password functionality as well as the invalid password behavior if you want pointers on one of these issues just let me know

Happy holidays !

Peter

here are a few addons

1) If you dont want de change password functionality :

copy

D:\ibi\WebFOCUS53\webapps\webfocus53\worp\jsp”

“WORP_Loginsi.jsp” to “WORP_Login.jsp”


2) If you want to return to the login screen if the user entered an invalid password

change :

“D:\ibi\WebFOCUS53\worp\conf\bidconfig.xml”

Change following piece of code










into


< !--






-->




3) If you want to go to a certaim webpage on logoff

change in that same bid-config file










into



< !--

Greetings

Peter

ooops, seems like that code didnt come tru

any way if you want the code on any of these 3 topics

just shout and i will mail them

Peter,
Thank you so much for the pointer. I'd love to get the code when you get a chance. And, if you don't mind sharing, I'd love to see examples of your changes (always interested in nice designs). Thanks again.

Paul

Pete,
put code tags around your code snippets and it'll come thru fine. a code tag is a left open square bracket (not a pointy one) followed by the word code and close the square bracket
and to end it, the same with a / in front of the word code.
to see that...on the menu above the post editing page(when you click Reply), at the far right in red , click that button.
PS-----
and Francis has just taught me another way.
on the Reply window page, click Options (on thelower left) and click Disable HTML.
very cool.

Paul,

If you would like some screen shots just give me an email address so that i can mail it to you

Hi, Pete,

I using webfocus76, i tried to edit the bid-config file to redirect the logoff page to another web page following your method, however the content of the bid-config file seems different from what you had posted on the forum, can you let me know how can i do it in webfocus76?

I'm not surprised as that post was from 4 years ago and a few different releases have occured since then and there can always be slight but significant changes.

However, the process is very similar so the above should lead you to what you need. For instance, we have redirected a successful logoff back to the login page -

<response-redirect request-context="logoff-success>
  <context-redirect url="/bid-login?"/>
</response-redirect>

All of which is not far removed from Pete's postings.

Hi, Tony,
Thank you for your reply, i did that changes you mentioned before i post my question here, but it still redirect back to the welcome page, that's why i wonder is there any other settings involve?

From Seek Wai

Seek,

What is the path of the file that you are editing?

T

Hi, Tony,

this is the path i edit the bid-config.xml
installed_path\ibi\WebFOCUS76\worp\conf

from seek wai

Seek,

OK, that's the correct file, so now the next step, what is your exact code now? - remember to place the code between [ code] and [/code]

T

In 769 there is no reason to modify the code to redirect. It is done in the Dashboard's View Builder utility. Select the view you want to modifu=y the redirect for and then select "Edit Settings". The Redirect settings are at the bottom of that page. You can refer to the Dashboard documentation for the rest. You only have to alter the WORP_Login.jsp file if you want to customize the Login Page itself.

Seek,
This is what we had to do to redirect:

  <response-redirect request-context="logoff-success">
<!--
    <context-redirect url="&WELCOME;"/>
  </response-redirect>

  <response-redirect request-context="password-change-success">
    <context-redirect url="&REDIRECT;" hrefs-per-row="5">
      <href src="&MPV;" text="mpvHREFTextShort" context-asset="true" localize-text="true"/>
      <href src="&LOGIN;" text="loginHREFTextShort" context-asset="true" localize-text="true"/>
      <href src="&VBLOGIN;" text="vbloginHREFTextShort" context-asset="true" localize-text="true"/>
      <href src="&WELCOME;" text="indexHREFTextShort" context-asset="true" localize-text="true"/>
    </context-redirect>
-->
  <x-redirect url="http://www.friends.edu"/>
  </response-redirect>

Note the x-redirect.
Hope this helps.
Paul

AlexU's approach is correct for your release, I believe this was added in 7.6.4. No longer do you have to change the bid-config.xml which was tedious and ever changing. Now you can set the redirect for each view independently through the Dashboard View Builder.

thanks for this posting, needed this

Hi,
Thank you for all of your replies, I manage to fixed the problem by following Alex method. The other question is when i have many views created, but just wanted to redirect all the views to 1 logoff page only, i have to edit the all the view setting 1 by 1, or is there anyway it will apply the setting to all the views?

From Seek Wai

I do things a little different. I make one change that then will affect all of the login/logoff pages. I create a JSP page that I add to the web app in the root directory.

<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html"%>
<%
	response.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_MOVED_PERMANENTLY);
	String newLocn = "/approot/bid-login.htm";
	response.setHeader("Location", newLocn);
%>  

This redirects to a custom login page. Then I change the web focus web.xml to make this the default page of the web app by changing the 'welcome-file-list' tag.

  <welcome-file-list>
    <welcome-file>bid-login.jsp</welcome-file>
  </welcome-file-list>
  

Now the default page of the /ibi_apps context is the login page, and all logoff actions go to this page as well.

It's a little more of a hammer then what you may want, but it does the job.
