Article Type: General
Product: Alma

Desired Outcome Goal:
When e-mails are sent from the library, the bottom right corner has a link called “My Account”. It has an empty link. How can I localize it?

Procedure:
The "Customer Parameters" Mapping Table table's “email_my_account” row defines the content of the link.

Please select:

1. Alma > General Configuration Menu
2. Click > Other Settings
3. Searh for the line"email_my_account" select "Customize"
4. Put the required URL, e.g.

http://www.yoel.com

Additional Information

If your URL has an ampersand it should be “escaped” (encoded).

Instead of:

http://www.yoel.com/primo_library/libweb/action/login.do?loginFn=signin&vid=YLK_VU1

Put:

http://www.yoel.com/primo_library/libweb/action/login.do?loginFn=signin%26vid=YLK_VU1

Another example URL:

http://primo.lib.edu/primo_library/libweb/action/myAccountMenu.do?vid=DEFAULT

For more information about the format of this URL, see How do you create a URL that will link users directly to the My Account page in Primo?
