You can “brand” the login page by creating your own login page.

1. Click the Login Screen Content link.

The Login screen content is displayed.

2. Modify the content as required.

3. Click the Save button.

You are returned to the Global Settings page.

SmartSimple recommends that users should login through their web site.

In order to add the username and password boxes to your web site, download the instructions from the SmartSimple Wiki – www.smartsimple.org

Title Type

The Title Type defines whether text or a login should be displayed in the top left corner of the main window.

When the organisation first registers, the title text displayed on the top left of the SmartSimple page is set to the organisation name.

Title Image

This setting is used to upload and display a logo, or other image files that you may wish to display on the login page, and in the top left corner of the SmartSimple main window.

For the best presentation, this image should be pre-sized to 133 by 46 pixels.

If you need to resize the image you can use a program such as Adobe Photoshop that allows you to set an exact height and width in pixels.

Title Text

You can define alternative text to be displayed on the login page, and in the top left corner of the SmartSimple main window as an alternate to the image.

JavaScript

The following JavaScript can be added to the page:

Forgot Password

HTML:

Forget your password? Please click <a href="javascript:passwdwin()">here</a>.

JavaScript:

function passwdwin(){
  window.open('/s_requestpassword.jsp','pwdwin',
  'left=200,top=200,toolbar=0,width=300,height=214,directories=no,status=no,
  scrollbars=no,resizable=no,menubar=no,alwaysRaised=yes');
}

The e-mail sent can be configured on the User Email Templates page.

Branch specific Forgot Password

This functionality is used when a user can exist in the system multiple times with the same email address, but against different branches. The configuration means that only the password for the user account under a specific branch will be updated.

HTML:

Forget your password? Please click <a class="Login" href="javascript:passwdwin(12345)">here</a> 

(12345 as the companyid) JavaScript:

function passwdwin(branch) { 
window.open('/s_requestpassword.jsp?branchid='+branch,'pwdwin','left=200,top=200,toolbar=0,width=300,height=214,directories=no,
status=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,menubar=no,alwaysRaised=yes');
}

A login page can be configured with multiple Forgot password links, each including a different companyid as the parameter, or the user can create multiple login pages with a single link/companyid included on each.

When the user clicks on the link, enters their password and submits it then the underlying code searches for the entered email address in the company and all its sub-organizations. It will then e-mail a new password for that branch specific user account.

The e-mail sent can then be configured with sslogic to tailor the content of the email to the specific branch.

Error Message

In order to display an error message when an incorrect login username or password is provided include the following variable in the Login Screen HTML:

@errmsg@
