Configuring the home page

By configuring the action "po_welcome.act", the administrator can configure the individual home page (welcome page) of Webdesk users. The following steps are required:

  • Assign the appropriate permissions for the new configuration (clients, roles, groups, persons)
  • On the "Settings" tab, click "Edit configuration details", where the following fields must be filled in:
Hide customer name on the home pageIf this checkbox is activated, the company name is hidden on the home page
Show message block only (default)On mobile devices, only the message block is displayed, without user-defined blocks
Show user-defined blocks onlyOn mobile devices, only user-defined blocks are displayed; the message block is hidden
Show user-defined block, followed by messageOn mobile devices, the user-defined block is displayed first; when scrolling, it is followed by the message block
Appearance for "Custom Block"General animation: Hand animation with rotating gearsCustom Block: uses the information from the "Custom Block" text field below; if this is empty, the default animation is usedHide the entire "Custom Block"
Custom BlockA primarily empty text field that can be changed and adapted as desired by programming in HTML code
Load general 'Custom block' into the text areaClicking this button loads the default programming of the Custom Block in HTML format into the text field so that it can then be edited

After the configuration, confirm the changes with "Save" or with "Save and Close". Two more steps are then necessary for the new home page to be displayed:

  • Integrate the new configuration into the menu tree
  • For the original action "po_welcome.act", assign negative permissions to those users who are to use the new home page, so that the new configuration can be applied for them.

Example - General Custom Block:​

<table id="custom-block">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Information</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Full name: $user.getFullName()</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> <img src="$user.getPersonImages().getOriginal().getDownloadUrl();"
height="100" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Org structure:
$appCtx.getBean("PoOrganisationService").getOrgStructure( $user
).getName()</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

Example - Customized Custom Block (here with an additional radio embedded):​

<div>
<iframe width="480" height="120"
src="http://stream.radio886.at/radio_88.6"
frameborder="0" style="overflow:hidden;" ></iframe>
<table id="custom-block">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Information</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Full name: $user.getFullName()</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> <img src="$user.getPersonImages().getOriginal().getDownloadUrl();"
height="100" /> This is my personal Webdesk </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Org structure:
$appCtx.getBean("PoOrganisationService").getOrgStructure( $user
).getName()</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
