Change the text when white-labeling the logon page

#1

I am following the article to white label the logon page. Is it possible to also change the text? For example, change Logon Name to User ID.

The text on the logon page is handled in the same manner as all the text in Dundas BI. This means the text is located in one of the localization files you can find in the folder of your Dundas BI instance, typically something like the following:

C:\Program Files\Dundas Data Visualization Inc\Dundas BI\Instances\{InstanceName}\www\BIWebsite\App_Data\Localization


To change any of the text on the logon page, open the Web.xml file in the en folder and make your changes. For your specific example, change:

<string key="GS_LogOn_Login_AccountName">Logon Name</string>

to

<string key="GS_LogOn_Login_AccountName">User ID</string>


Note that you will have to recycle the application pool to see the changes.

For more information, check out the article on localization in Dundas BI.

This worked for me.


It is useful to know that you can change any text within any of the pages and dialogues in BI in this manner.
