Is there a way to modify the Forms login screen?

I'm wondering if there is a way to modify the initial login screen for Forms. I'm looking to add an additional company logo and add URL links to tutorial videos. Is there an aspx page or other file to access to make these tweaks? I'm having a difficult time locating one if there is.

Hi Travis,

You can actually customize the login page directly via the Forms cshtml files. All the files can be found at installation directory\Laserfiche Forms\Forms\Views. To access the login page, proceed to Account and LogIn.cshtml. Be sure to include any files you modify in your backups; these files will be overwritten when you upgrade Forms. I also want to note that the views you edit might not be compatible with future versions of Forms, so you may need to re-implement them in the future. To make your life easier when editing these files, I recommend using Visual Studio, which provides syntax highlighting and autocompletion. Visual Studio Express can be downloaded (for free!) from Microsoft and works just fine.

Hi Travis,

I missed your hairy mug at the conference! Hope you're well.

Rather than change the forms logo, we embedded a form in our own page... It's not exactly what you've asked but might solve your problem hopefully.

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head><title>

</title></head>
<body>
       <form method="post" action="Receiver_PriceReductionForm.aspx" id="Form1">
<div class="aspNetHidden">
<input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE" id="__VIEWSTATE" value="/wEPDwUKLTYxNTk4NjcxMWRkG+e9z/iGdETwsYJyG4QWLqBeJqVC3HXG4xSgJwt1ga4=" />
</div>

    <div>
    <a id="HyperLink1" href="../Agent.aspx"><img src="img/home.jpg"  Width = 100 Height = 100 /></a>
    &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
   
    </div>
    <table class="style1">
          <tr>
        <td id="" class="style2"  ScrollHeight="100%" ScrollWidth="100%" >
        
        <script type="text/javascript" src='https://xxx.xxxx.ie/Forms/js/forms-embed.js'></script><script type="text/javascript">                                                                                                        lfembed = new LaserficheForms.Form(null, { bpid: '33?Property_Reference_No=590&Dummy=1', host: 'https://xxx.xxxx.ie/Forms', height: 'auto', width: 'auto', autoheight: true }).getFrm();</script>   
        </td>
     </td>
     </tr>
    </table>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

Ben! Thanks for the suggestion my friend. That's a good workaround. I'll catch you next year, if not sooner.
