Customize the welcome page

CompleteFTP's default home page (below) is displayed when a user first navigates to the server via a web browser.

Welcome Page

To modify the text or replace the home page, follow these steps:

  1. Create or locate the customization instructions file at the path: 
    C:\ProgramData\Enterprise Distributed Technologies\Complete FTP\Include\custom\customizations.jss
  2. To modify the text and logo of the existing home page, use the variable assignments as illustrated below: 
    publicPageContent.homeURL = "https://mycompany.com";
publicPageContent.logo = "https://mycompany.com/logo.jpg";
publicPageContent.title = "My Company";
publicPageContent.subTitle = "";
publicPageContent.login = "Sign In";
publicPageContent.links = [
	{ url: "https://mycompany.com/instructions.html", text: "Usage Instructions" },
	{ url: "https://mycompany.com/privacy.html", text: "Privacy Policy" }
];
  3. Alternatively, replace the home page entirely by setting the variable publicPageTemplate to the path of your custom HTML file: 
    publicPageTemplate = "../Include/custom/homePage.html";
    The resulting file path will be: 
    C:\ProgramData\Enterprise Distributed Technologies\Complete FTP\Include\custom\homePage.html
    Ensure this HTML file has a link to /Login or use the provided Javascript redirect code: 
    <html>
<body>
	<script type = "text/javascript">
	  window.location = "/Login";
	</script>
</body>
</html>
  4. The login and logout pages can be customized using loginPageTemplate and logoutPageTemplate variables, respectively. Ensure that customized templates work reliably, especially after CompleteFTP updates.
