this page when they log in. Once they land on that page, you can provide links and
content according to your design. Ultimately, subscribers must submit the standard
login POST FORM to be logged in, but you can put the POST FORM on
Internal_Portal.htm or any other page you want.
Upload your custom Internal_Portal.htm file. This file is the link to the rest of your
custom content. Somewhere on your portal, you must have a login page with the
Login POST FORM. Make sure any additional files or images are referenced from the
/uploads/
directory internally.
Ex a mp l e In te r n a l Po rt a l P a ge fo r a ho te l :
Internal_Portal.htm: A welcome landing page that identifies the property and has
various images and links for the hotel brand. Includes a “click here for internet
access” link to Agreement.htm
Agreement.htm: This page has your long legal terms and conditions on it, and a
button linking to Login.htm that says “I agree to these terms and conditions”
Login.htm: This page has the Login POST FORM on it along with a username and
password text field, with whatever graphics and style you want. When the user clicks
“login” their account is validated however you have authentication configured (Local
Database, RADIUS, etc.). In the POST FORM, you can configure the redirect after
login to Welcome.htm
Help.htm: All of the above pages could have a link to a help page with information
on how to connect or other issues.
More pages: You could also have custom Welcome and Goodbye pages, you could
create your own pop-ups using JavaScript, you could provide links to external billing
sites to create valid user accounts, and whatever else you need on your portal.
Note:
The Controller web server will provide file access and basic HTTP services only.
You will not be able to use server side technologies like PHP, server side JavaScript,
java, etc, unless you redirect subscribers to an external web server with these
capabilities.
