The user pages display information about the user's account and provide access to features such as TopUp/Pre-Paid Cards. The visual design of these pages can be tailored to make them fit into the look and feel of an existing internet or intranet site. This gives the pages an official look ensuring your users see the system as an important part of your organization's network.
PaperCut Software International Pty Ltd offers a service where their developers will undertake design work based on an existing website. If you would like assistance with the customization, please email the PaperCut Software International Pty Ltd support team.
Organizations whose staff have good to advanced HTML experience may choose to customize the pages in-house.
The design of the user pages is controlled via HTML "include" files for the header and footer areas of
the page, with page styling controlled via Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). Placing the following files in
the PaperCut MF directory structure at [app-path]/server/custom/web overrides page
layout and style.
| Filename | Description |

| If the footer include file exists, the HTML in the footer area of the page is replaced with the contents of the file. |
| If this file exists, the logo on the web-based login page is replaced with the supplied image. The file should be an image of size 250px by 64px in PNG format. |

Tip
Any custom content placed in [app-path]/server/custom/web/, such as additional
images, can be accessed via a URL beginning with /custom/. For example if a
file named header.jpeg is placed in
[app-path]/server/custom/web/ it can be accessed via the URL
/custom/header.jpeg.
Some organizations may benefit from providing additional login instructions to users. This can be useful for explaining which username or password to use (in the case there are multiple logins or passwords at the site).
A custom message may be displayed on the login page using the following config key:
| Config name | Description |
|---|---|
display.login-instructions | A message to be displayed on the login screen, above the username and password fields. |
