Disable Webdesk for Authors

Hi Guys,

Im looking for a way to remove the webdesk checkbox on the login screen. Is there a supported way to do this?

Supported? Dunno.

But you can just edit the $IWHOME/httpd/webapps/webdesk/teamsite/login.jsp and comment out the page import of the WebDeskApplication.

Make a backup first, of course, and then run $IWHOME/install/install_webapps.ipl -c

Finally, bounce your server to see the changes take effect.

Good luck,
Tom

Thanks for that.

I figured it was going to lead down that path.

If your running 5.5 and above you'll need to recompile webdesk. Do this by running the following cmd:
iwperl c:\iw-home\install\install_webapps.ipl -c

Bouncing the server will still bring up the old login, you could just do a iwreset -a after recompilation.
