Customising Your Own Login
January 24 2011, 11:38 PM
It's not uncommon to want to customise and build your own login for FarCry solutions. As FarCry is very flexible, the problem is your spoiled for choice and there are several different approaches to this type of security customisation.
During a chat at today's FarCry Breakfast we outlined three common scenarios for login customisation:
- working with the standard webtop login and applying your own look and feel
- having a login pod embedded in the front end of the site ie. anon users can see content but when you login the view may be personalised
- all of web site extranet ie. anon users don't get to see anything but a login screen
A common complication is that the /webtop virtual may be completely secured from public view as a security precaution.
In a bid to kick start a little discussion Blair has kindly thrown up some sample code showing different approaches to skinning authentication :)
