I’ve been banging around the KB and Wiki’s trying to find a solution to create a custom masthead in Inotes. I really need a walkthrough to implement this customization. Has anyone else done a customization whose experience they can share?
Subject: Custom_Masthead
To create a custom masthead, you would edit the Custom_Masthead subform. Just add the HTML for your masthead there. Don’t forget to set the masthead height and margin in Custom_CSS subform.
Both subforms are in the Extension Forms File. See here for information on creating the Extension Forms File.
Subject: Thank you
I’ll have a go and update when complete.
Subject: Limited success
I’ve had limited success but the iterative nature of making the customization is a challenge since it doesn’t seem like I can get direct output immediately after making the change. I followed the steps of making the change to form85_x.nsf then do an OS copy of the existing one, then dbcache flush, restart task http, and clear browser cache, yet I don’t get the modifications I’ve made immediately.
Subject: Suggestion
You should be able to see your changes right away. Make sure you do things in this order:
Log off iNotes / close your browser
dbcache flush
Copy the new Forms85_x to the server’s iNotes directory
tell http restart
Clear your browser cache
Open iNotes.
