Cognos Web Portals

[JackONeill]

Hi,

Im trying to understain how the Cognos Web application can be " changed".

Changing the blue cognos titles, changing the icons,

i'm on the server and have found some "templates" xls files..

How does it work?

In Webcontent there is no files...

Just folders...

somone can explain how to configure a personal display..

- Changing the Error page message
- Changing the Login - Password (adding news)
- ...

this is under Upfront, PowerPlay Web, Visualizer..

Do you not have the manual or the help files?

There is awhole section in there on how to customise your web portal from the gif images to the colour schemes, font sizes etc.
Have a look its well worth the read.

If you have instaled the progs in the default directories then the docs are in the following directory

C:\Program Files\Cognos\cer3\Documentation

and you're looking for information on Themes.

The default theme is

C:\Program Files\Cognos\cer3\templates\upfront\en\standard70
