[ome-users] A bit of django help - need to change login page behaviour, slightly

[Aleksandra Tarkowska (Staff)]

Hi Jake,

I understood that you want to help users to chose where they should go by
placing an index page on https://blah.blah.blah.blah, that will allow them
to click on custom buttons:

<a href="https://blah.blah.blah.blah/webclient/login/">LOGIN</a> or <a
href="https://blah.blah.blah.blah/webclient">PUBLIC SPACE</a>

webstart/index.html was just an example of how such a template could look
like and helps to alter as required.



omero.web.public.url_filter is not designed to handle your case. If you
wish to permanently redirect https://blah.blah.blah.blah  to
https://blah.blah.blah.blah/webclient/login/?url=%2Fwebclient%2F you need
to do it on your websereve configuration

For example nginx

location / {
  rewrite ^/$ https://blah.blah.blah.blah/webclient/login permanent;
    }



Kind regards
Ola
