4. Selecting the appropriate language from the list will generate a new login page builder for the selected language.

5. Configure the Login Screen Content to your requirements (including text in the specified language)

6. Click on the Preview button at the bottom of the page to review the content, and click Save when finished to save the Login Screen Content.

Notes

  • By default, if the Login Screen is blank (has no HTML or Template data) the a standard login page will be displayed. This standard login works with the language parameters with no configuration.
  • When linking to a language specific login page, add the appropriate language parameter to the login page url to direct the user to the appropriate page.
  • If no parameter is added the user will be directed to the English version.
  • Examples of URL's using language parameter:
English lang=1 - https://sampleorg.smartsimple.com/s_Login.jsp?lang=1
French lang=2 - https://sampleorg.smartsimple.com/s_Login.jsp?lang=2
