VAP Login Secondary Pages

Bhavani_Ramathoti

Hi All,

I am occupied with the following requirement.

I have 3 different sites on my Portal Installation. Each site a different look and feel for the Login. Hence we created 3 differnt Login Secondary Pages and associated them to the relevant Sites.

We access these Login Page with the Following URL format

http://<domain>:port/portal/<site>/Template.LOGIN

Our 3 sites Login Would be

http://<domain>:port/portal/site1/Template.LOGIN

http://<domain>:port/portal/site2/Template.LOGIN

http://<domain>:port/portal/site3/Template.LOGIN

However, when we tweak any of the above URL to the following:

http://<domain>:port/portal/

This takes you to a default VAP Log IN page.

When we finally Host these sites on Web server, and if any of the enduser by mistake hits the  following  URL http://<domain>:port/portal/, which page will be shown? we want that the end user should not be thrown this login page.

I assume that the default VAP Login Page is differnt from the Site Login Page we are creating.

Please advice.

Bhavani

Bhavani,

If it is acceptable to default to one of your sites when users do not?specify?a site in the URL, then you can set that up by going into the Server Console and changing the following setting:

Server Settings > Server Defaults > Site & Appearance > Default Site

Then, when you try to navigate to?http://host:port/portal, you will be routed to the default site.
