Hide Login Page

By default, users access the Advantage application by entering a valid User ID and Password on the Advantage Login page. If a site decides to access the Advantage application session using SSO via an identity provider portal and restrict normal login to the application then a System Administrator can control the information that is displayed on the Login page via the following parameters in the ADV30Params.ini file for the Advantage application:

  • HideLoginPage - This parameter controls what is displayed on the Login page. When this parameter is set to true, the following parameters determine what is displayed instead of the usual login fields:

  • HideLoginPageMessage - This parameter specifies the informational message that needs to be displayed on the Login page when the HideLoginPage parameter is set to true.  

For example: “This application is currently down for maintenance.” or “Please navigate to the Login portal during this time.”

  • HideLoginAlternateURL - This parameter specifies the alternate login path or URL with a different port to access the Login portal instead of the normal Login page when the HideLoginPage parameter is set to true.

Note:

  • The delivered value for the HideLoginPage parameter in the ADV30Params.ini file is false. When set to false, the normal login fields are displayed.

  • This functionality is also applicable when the application is accessed via a mobile device.

Additionally, Advantage 4 provides the ability to configure information messages on the HideLoginpage for disabled and locked users when the Single Sign On configuration is in place. Using the given configurable text (CTEXT) message codes, the default messages can be updated at the site level from the Configurable Text (CTEXT) page.

  • For disabled user account:

  • Page Title - If a user trying to login has a disabled user account, then the page title displayed to this user is ‘Account Disabled’.

  • Message text - "Your account is disabled. Please contact the system administrator.".

  • This configurable message can be modified at the site level using the CTEXT message code - ACCDSBMG.

  • For locked user account:

  • Page Title - If a user trying to login has a locked user account, then the page title displayed to this user is ‘Account Locked’.

  • Message text - "Your account is locked. Please contact the system administrator.".

  • This configurable message can be modified at the site level using the CTEXT message code - ACCLCKMG.

Note: These page titles and system feedback messages only show when the HideLoginPage parameter is set as true in the ADV30Params.ini file. Application server restart is required after modification of CTEXT messages.
