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>?

Hi K,

Is it so that every user has only access to one view ,if so then yes its possible , its a serie of changes you have to apply.

If this is what you need , i will post the changes you will have to make


P.

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>

Thanks a million. It worked. Now how do i redirect it back to the login promt when i log off?

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

It says Managed reporting login:
I want to change all of that

K.,

i could sent you a word document that contains just about anything for customizing the dashboard

in the ibi_html/images you the images that are used in the login screen , we replaced these one with our own

Could you send me that document?

Sure , just pm an email address

Pete,

Can I have the document too.

Thanks

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?

Hey Pete,

Is it possible to upload that word document for rest of us too? Thanks.

Mike

Mike,

I'm not sure how i can upload it on here

P.

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

P.

This is what I edit in the BID-CFG.XML file to return the user to "customized" login view.

Well, the HTML got stripped... will try adding *- to each line. I wish there was a "preview post" button...

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.

That option is grayed out. Here's the code in the bid-config.xml doc minus the html tags I substituted ... for < and >:

...context-redirect url="&REDIRECT;" hrefs-per-row="5"...

Pete,

Please email the document at sjadoon99@yahoo.com when you get a chance. Thanks.

Mike

Somebody can send this document at developermax@yahoo.com ?

Thanks

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.
