How Do I Remove "Information OnDemand Services"?

This is on BO XI 3.0.

My organization and I feel that our users don’t need to see this sales pitch from BO as a option when they log into InfoView.

How do I get rid of it?

I can tell you how I did it in R2 and maybe that will help you get started.

In the InfoView home.jsp file there is HTML code that display two links on the InfoView home page, these need to be commented out or removed. In the web.xml file for the desktop.war file there is this property

that needed to be set to false.

If you get to the InfoView home page and right-click on the page you should be able to view the source. From my experience the window that opens also includes the path to the file you are viewing, this will help you locate the physical file in the war that needs to be changed.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for the reply. I gave that information to our vendor that maintains the web and database server. They are looking into it.

Better yet, teach people to ignore that useless page and set their default home page to the Public Folders or Inbox or Favorites.

For XI 3.1

In \Tomcat55\webapps\InfoViewApp\jsp\listing\home.jsp

Find this piece of code:

Change the Enabled to Disabled:

Hi Mate,

You should just disable it in the InfoviewApp web.xml file:

<context-param>
    <param-name>app.ondemand.toolbar.button.enabled</param-name>
    <param-value>false</param-value>
</context-param>

Don’t forget to pack your web.xml file back into your war file to stop your change being over written.

Give me a shout if you need more info.

Sorry I posted the wrong setting but you will probably want to remove the ondemand button as well.

Here is the setting to remove the ondemand link:

<context-param>
    <param-name>app.ondemand.textlink.enabled</param-name>
    <param-value>false</param-value>
</context-param>

We’re running a pair of web nodes, one iis, one 'cat. Isn’t there a single configuration point under the CMC?

Only asking because i haven’t found it yet… :wah:
