Thread: Custom Login Screen

Custom Login Screen Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

I have a custom login screen, but am unsure how to set it as the default. I inherited the screen from another developer and it is housed in it's own aspx page under support files. Is it possible to set this page as the default login screen? Do I need to move it to an ascx file then house in a switchboard page under pages? Any advice appreciated. Thanks

What I've done is created a JPG file, leaving white space for the Username & Password, and uploaded the file to SupportFiles\images\icons in AA.

Next I opened the Login.aspx file and edited the backgound image line (Line 7) to use my file instead of the default splashscreen file.

Rebuild & Deploy.

To change the page used for the Login, open the Web.config file and locate the following section:

<authentication mode="Forms">

Inside of that section you'll see the following:

<forms loginUrl="Login.aspx" protection="All" timeout="30" name=".SLXAUTH" path="/" defaultUrl="default.aspx" requireSSL="false" slidingExpiration="true" cookieless="UseDeviceProfile" enableCrossAppRedirects="true"/>

Add your custom login page to the root of the site (in the support files so it gets deployed out) and then change the "loginUrl" attribute in the line about to point to the name of your custom login page. You'll have to test things to make sure this doesn't cause other problems, but from looking at the OOTB login.aspx page, looks like it would work just fine.
