Login Banner

This topic applies to both Software Logger and the Logger Appliance.

You can customize the message on the login screen to suit your needs. The text you enter in the Content and confirmation fields is displayed in a first page. After the user acknowledges the message, a second page with Username and Password fields will appear. You must have the “Configure Login Settings” permission enabled for your user account to edit the login banner.

To customize the login banner:

  1. Click System Admin from the top-level menu bar.
  2. Click Login Banner in the Users/Groups section.

  3. Enter the text you want to display as the login banner in the Content field

    You can enter only unformatted text in this field; however, you can apply standard HTML tags to display formatted text. Loading images in this field is not allowed.

  4. (Optional) Enter text in the confirmation field.

    5. If you enter text in this field, it will be converted to a link that the user must acknowledge to transition to the Username and Password page. For example, if you enter "Are you sure?", "Do you want to proceed?" or "I agree" in this field, the user must click on the text in order to continue. Otherwise, if no text was added, the user must click ok to enable the next page.

  5. Click Save.
