On this pane, you can specify pre-logon and post-logon messages:

• A pre-logon message will appear on the Log in page.

• To override the default post-logon message (see Messages in the beginning of this topic), select the Override post-logon message option and enter a message.

The messages must be 500 characters or less.

The Branding category allows you to configure the branding of User Portal.

The following properties can be customized:

• Webpage title: Specifies the title that appears on the webpage. You can type any title you like.

• Login to: Specifies a name that will appear in the User Portal login dialog. For example, if you type "ABC" here, the login page will say, "Log in to ABC". There are two predefined variables that you can use here: %FARM% (the actual Farm name; this is the default value) and %SITE% (the Licensing Site name).

• Company logo: Displays the image which is displayed on the User Portal page header. To change the image, select browse and then specify the image file. Note that changing the logo image also removes the default Remote Application Server part from the page header.

• Favicon icon: Displays the currently set favicon icon. To change the icon, click Browse and select an icon file.

The URLs category is used to specify the Theme login page URL and add additional URLs to the User Portal page:

• Show Parallels Client download URL. If selected, users will see the Download Client link on the Web Client page, which can be used to download, install, and configure Parallels Client on users' computers.

• Override download URL for branded Parallels Client (Windows): Specifies a location from which your Windows users will download Parallels Client for Windows. By default, Parallels Client is downloaded from the Parallels web site. If you use a branded version of Parallels Client, you can specify its location in this field.

• Footer URLs. This option allows you to specify custom URLs that will be placed in the Web Client footer. To add a URL, click Tasks > Add and specify a URL, a text that will appear on the page footer, and a tooltip text. When entering similar URLs, you can duplicate an existing one by right-clicking it and choosing Duplicate (or select an entry and click the "duplicate" icon next to the [-] icon). If you've added multiple URLs, you can reorder them by clicking the up or down arrow icons or selecting Up or Down items in the Tasks menu. The URLs will appear in the footer in the order listed (you can click the Preview HTML4 Theme button to see how it looks).

Input prompts specified here will appear on the login page to help users enter their username and password correctly in the fields provided. For example, the default user@domain login prompt will appear as a light gray text in the login field, hinting the user that they should enter their name in the UPN format. Predefined input prompts are provided for every supported language. You can specify your own prompts if needed.

Cookie consent

Select the Enable cookie consent option to show a notification about User Portal cookie policy to users on first time use. This provides users with information regarding the use of cookies and the option to accept.

End User License Agreement

Select the Enable EULA option to show the Parallels End User License Agreement (EULA) to users on first time use. User intervention is required to read and accept the agreement to complete the login process.

The User Portal (Web Client) category allows you to configure Theme settings for User Portal. These settings affect how the User Portal looks and behaves in a web browser.

The Secure Gateway category can be used to override the default User Portal settings, which are configured for the RAS Secure Gateway. Normally, you shouldn't override the gateway settings if you are running a traditional Parallels RAS Farm and using a single Theme in a Site. Scenarios when overriding the settings may by needed include the following:

• You have multiple Themes for different groups of users and would like different Themes to behave differently in terms of application launching methods and restrictions.

• You are using RAS multi-tenant architecture where RAS Secure Gateways are running in Tenant Broker and are shared by Tenants, which are separate Farms. Themes in this kind of deployment are defined on the Tenant level, so each Tenant can have its own Web Client look and feel. Since gateways are shared by Tenants, it is logical to configure these settings on a Theme level, which is exactly what the Secure Gateway category allows you to do. For the complete description of what Tenant Broker and Tenants are, please read the RAS Multi-Tenant Architecture chapter.

To override the RAS Secure Gateway settings, select the Override Secure Gateway settings for the Theme option and then specify your own settings. For the description on how to configure these settings, see Configure Web Client.

Select languages that will appear in the language selector on the User Portal page. The selector appears as a language flag icon on the page header to the right of the user name.

The Colors category allows you to customize the appearance of the User Portal pages.

The following properties can be customized:

• Header options: Configures the appearance of the header.

• Work area image: Configures the background image for User Portal. You can choose one of the preset images or upload an image from a URL or a local computer. The supported file types are JPG, PNG, and SVG. The size of the image file must be under 10 MB.

• Colors: Specifies the desired colors for various User Portal elements, such as header, footer, work area, buttons, etc.
