Login Pages - Settings

Introduction

To fine tune the behavior of a Login Page you need to edit its settings.
Rather than going through each item on the Settings tab, most of which are self explanatory, we will cover those more difficult items.

The default theme is called Default and it will redirect to the Bootstrap 5 page.
There is a special theme called Custom which allows you to provide your own URLs where the redirection should go.
There are also a couple of pre defined themes. Selecting one of those as a theme will redirect to the older Webix style login pages.
The items on the drop-down is in fact defined inside the DynamicLogin.php file: https://github.com/RADIUSdesk/rdcore/blob/main/cake3/rd_cake/config/DynamicLogin.php
One of the ideas around the Login Pages is to have a common URL for the captive portal e.g. https://cloud.radiusdesk.com/cake3/rd_cake/dynamic-details/chilli-browser-detect/
The CakePHP Controller will then determine:
- Which login page to serve based on the value of Theme.
- Which language the page must serve based on the default language selected for the Login Page.

When you added multiple photos you can use the slideshow feature.
The duration per slide can be fine tuned by editing the photo's settings.
You can also enforce the watching of the slideshow which will delay the pop-up of the login screen until after the specified time completed.

This feature is handy on pages where a Permanent User register by typically providing their email address and password.
When the Permanent User is created (Provided the settings on the Realm is such) a suffix will be added.
Thus you will have a username like dirk@gmail.com@our_internet_cafe.
Specifying the Auto-add Suffix as our_internet_cafe will then automatically append that value to the username supplied by the user.
They then simply have to remember their email address and the password they choose.
