Inbox action bar customization not visible in web client

HCL Domino Domino Forum

Hi,

We have created a mailin database with template Mail (R8.5).

I improve design of the database adding some functions to flag documents.

I added action buttons in action bar of folder “Inbox” and in view “All Documents”.

Opening database with Notes client, all is ok. New action buttons are displayed.

But when I open the database with web client I don’t see my action buttons.

In the forum, I found some topics related to cutomization of template DWA8.5 to be able to display custom action button in view/folder action bar on web client.

Asking to my Notes admin where I can find the DWA85 template on our server, he responded me that all is included in template mail85.ntf… but opening this template in designer I don’t find DWA elements listed in posts (subform Custom_JS_Lite etc.).

Could someone tell how I can do to be able to display my own action buttons on web client?

Where DWA85.ntf file can be saved on the server as I don’t see it in data directory?

Thanks in advance

Subject: You need to edit the forms85.nsf

The database you need to edit is the forms85.nsf. This is the “web template” for iNotes/DWA. It is located in the following install directory of the Domino server:…\Domino\data\iNotes\

You will need some JavaScript and HTML experience. Here is an article on DWA customization with some examples. It was originally written for 7x but for simple customizations it still applies.

Here is a technote of a quick example:

Doc #: 1244827

One tip to think of, if you support multiple templates (6X,7X, 8X, etc.) in your environment you will need each formsX.nsf on the server and edit each one appropriately.

thank you for your response.

Required development is harder than I thought… but I like this kind of challenge !
