    Making PrimoVE Read Only

    • Product: Primo VE

     

    Description

    How do we make our Primo VE 'read only' for a short period of time?

    Resolution

    To toggle Primo VE to a 'read only mode you only need to disable fulfillment activities. 

    1. Add the following lines to your custom1.css with a message to disable your LOGIN link:

    a. /*Suppress Sign In link in User Area*/
    prm-user-area-expandable .md-button.user-button {
        color: #39efff;
        display: none;
    }

    b. /*Suppress Sign In link in GetIt section*/
    prm-authentication .md-button, .md-button.button-as-link { 
        display: none
    }

    3. Add a line to Primo VE's homepage_en.html indicating that due to maintenance, Discovery is *only* available for search and that requesting and related fulfillment functions have been temporarily disabled until further notice.

    4. Modify the "nui.request.signin" label from "Please sign in to check if there are any request options" to something like "Requesting not available due to maintenance"
    Configuration: Discovery > Display Configuration: Labels > Getit Service Labels: nui.request.signin

    5. Once these changes are applied, be sure to clear your browser cache and/or view in an Incongnito window to see the changes.

    6. Once the maintenance period passes, be sure to restore these settings so that users can login to Primo VE to utilize the fulfillment features.
