I agree with the above. Not only will it deliver on the marketing aspect, but it might also attract some more participation. Regards, Pierre Smits *ORRTIZ.COM * Services & Solutions for Cloud- Based Manufacturing, Professional Services and Retail & Trade http://www.orrtiz.com

Pierre: "attract some more participation" -- exactly. I did see a response about the original change to omit these from the home page - I can't imagine that we have enough traffic to stress any server. If there is general agreement who can make the change? On 2/7/2014 3:53 AM, Pierre Smits w

Others please chime in if I am wrong, but... Pretty sure if you omit BILL_TO_CUSTOMER -or- BILL_FROM_VENDOR things will not work. There are at least 25 references in the java code that use these roles. ofbiz.1104# find . -type f -name \*\.java | xargs egrep '(BILL_TO_CUSTOMER|BILL_FROM_VENDOR)'

General login page for all users?

2014-02-07 Thread apf
Hello, does a general login page exists for all users to access their apps? The main page "/webtools/control/main" has a login link that sends me to the admin login page "webtools/control/checkLogin" BUT only the admin can login here... all other users get an error. Is there a login page for all?

Hi Alex, The main page /webtools/control/m/ain is intended to access the webtools of OFBiz. All the other applications under the OFBiz umbrella can be accessed through //control/main, e.g. /catalog/control/main, and share the same login screen. Regards, Pierre Smits *ORRTIZ.COM

Hi, thanks for the reply. I'm aware those links exist, but my question is if there is a page that allows all users to login regardless of what applications they have access to? And once logged in, show them only the apps they have access to? This is the login process for Opentaps, just wondering ho

Alex, Opentaps is not OFBiz, OFBiz is not Opentaps. If the were one and the same the login would be the same. Access to applications is determined by the permissions a user has. Unfortunately, there is not one application that will serve a a placeholder for login and logout. I you feel up to it,

Thanks for clarifying that. I'd be more than glad to share my solution, once I come up with one... So if I understood correctly, Ofbiz login process requires a user to go to the specific URL of the application they have access to, otherwise they can't log in. And there is no common login page tha

I think single sign on is well implemented in ofbiz. If you got a hot-deploy app, don't add an entry to handle login. The controller will automatically handle it. If you want to customize the login page to give a look and feel of your org, which I did as well you need to modify the file at the fol

There are two different login flows actually. Single sign on is for all back end applications (AR/AP/Accounting/Catalog etc.). For the front end store the login is handled in the ecommerce app located at speciapurpose/ecommerce/webapp/ecommerce/login.ftl To change the front end store's look and fe
