Logging into Admin
To log in, simply type in your site’s address and append “/admin” to it. Type in your username, which is your email address, and your password.
Logging into the Admin through the URL
You can login into the Admin from an external site by constructing the URL such as this one:
http://yourdomain.com/Admin/Index.aspx?Email=richard@mac.com&Password=Dawkins
In this example the domain is http://yourdomain.com/, the email is richard@mac.com and password is Dawkins. You simply need to replace these with your details and you will be able to login into your site.
Logging in through Triangle within Dreamweaver
Enter in your username and password in the boxes provided. After you click to log in, select your site from the drop down list and click to load it.
Web form Username and Password fields
By including the username/password options in a web form, you can enable customers to register for a new username and password. Username and passwords allow customers to log in to Secure Zones.
Usernames are unique across all contacts. That means no two contacts can share the same username and password. When a web form submission is made:
- If the customers record already has a username and a password, then the username/password entered in the web form is ignored. The existing username and password details are automatically emailed to the email address on the customers record.
- If the username entered already belongs to another customer then the current customer is notified. The customer can make corrections and resubmit the web form. Each submission creates a new case.
Note: If you want to make the customers email address their username then you will need to make some slight changes to your web form. In the system the username and the email address fields are different. And for the customer to use their email address to login, their email address must also be stored in the Username field.
You can customize a web form to automatically populate the username fields with the customers email address. To do so follow these steps:
- Insert your web form on to a web page
- Hide (not remove) the username field. You can do this by wrapping it in a HTML div element which is hidden. E.g.
<div style= display:none;>Username<br><input type=text name="Username" ></div>
- Make the email address field automatically update the Username field when an email address is entered. E.g.
<input type=text name="EmailAddress" onChange="document.getElementById('Username').value=this.value;">
Secure zone login
Creating secure zone username and password
If you need to grant permission to your customers to access a secure zone you need to assign a username and password to their record. Go to Customers -> Create a New Contact to create a new customer record or retreive existing customer record. Then click edit and provide a username and password for this contact.
Adding customer to a secure zone
Click on "Manage Customer Subscriptions" link. Look under the heading "Secure Zones Subscriptions" select the Secure zone you wish to subscribe to. The date next to the secure zone name indicates the subscription's expiry date, which you can set.
