Change the teamsite gui

I need to change the look and field of the teamsite GUI completely.
Should be able to put more than 3 Images on the User interface, change teh login page completely to look like a custom login page, and then change the templating client gui from the traditonal ones.

Can you give me pointers on how that can be done.

one of my former clients did so by hacking into a number of HTML files . this is not documented anywhere, but as far as I know, Mike Svatek has recieved an applause for demonstrating it diring one of last GearUp's .

the problem with this hack was that patches would kill it.

If you want to make a change to any JSP in the /httpd/webapp/webdesk area, you've got to run the command:
/iw-home/install/install_webapps.ipl -c

In order for your changes to take effect.

I dunno about touching the templating GUI. . . I'd stay away from that if I were you.

I've done it more than once.. Its kind of simple and easy, ( if you are
sure about HTML, Javascript and Perl / knowing Photoshop or some image editing
software would be a great ) Well here are a the simple ways to do them

Open \iw-home\httpd\iw
There will be file
named tsdriver.html
( backup before you make any changes ! )
Edit the bgcolor
and other colors and fonts or even you can include your own new HTML
/ Javascript / CSS additions to it in order to customise.
To change the buttons
and images open /iw-home/httpd/iw-icons
folder
There you'll find
all the buttons that are biend used on the Teamsite GUI. You can change
them and make it look the way you want ... (back it up for your safety)
Wow... now take
a look at the GUI and you have it the way you wanted
If you want to
customize the Login page (Teamsite 5.0) Goto \iw-home\httpd\webapps\webdesk\teamsite\webdeskpro
and you can customise the loging page there.
The images for
the login page will reside in \iw-home\httpd\webapps\webdesk\images
(ts_login_splash.gif)
you can even customize the image if you need !

That's it you can have your own

Users should be aware that there are some dangers in "hacking" the UI in unsupported ways. Firstly, if you ever upgrade your system to a later version, the installer may write over your changes. So keep track of what you change and backup those files.

Secondly, the changes that you manage to get to work (by skill or by luck) in one version may not work in future versions.

Forewarned is forearmed.
