How to set the 'Login' button in WebVoyage to direct users to the 'My Account' page.
- Product: Voyager
Question
How do we configure WebVoyage to direct users to the 'My Account' page after logging in, rather than the default search page?
Answer
- Connect via SSH or telnet to server as user voyager.
- Open /m1/voyager/xxxdb/tomcat/vwebv/context/vwebv/ui/{Your Skin}/internal.properties
- Find this line: page.header.login.link=login
- Update line to redirect to myAccount: page.header.login.link=http://{hostname:port}/vwebv/myAccount
- Save changes
Additional Information
This change sets the URL of the 'Login' button to be the full URL of the 'My Account' page. Since the 'My Account page requires a login, the user is prompted to log in before continuing to the target page.
The link can also be used on a normal web page (like a Library's Home Page) to direct patrons to their account information after logging in.
