To modify and show the footer, you can do the following procedures:
  • Insert the footer’s HTML code into the index.jsp file
  • Modify the cascading style sheet file from one of the skins to determine whether or not to display the footer
Insert the Footer’s HTML into the index.jsp File
Perform the following procedure to insert the footer’s HTML code into the index.jsp file. This file is located in
iam_im.ear
/user_console_war/app/imcss.
Follow these steps:
  1. Open the index.jsp file in a text editor.
  2. Under the <div id="foot"> section at the end of the file, add the HTML for
    yourskin
    skin’s footer between the <div> and </div> markers.
  3. Save the file.
Modify the Cascading Style Sheet to Display a Footer
You can modify the cascading style sheet file from one of the skins --
idm
,
horizontal
,
horizontal2
, and
neteauto
-- to configure
Identity Manager
to display the footer or not.
These cascading style sheet files are stored in the following folder:
iam_im.ear/user_console_war/app/imcss/
By default, the footer shows in the
horizontal
and
horizontal2
skins but not in
idm
or
neteauto
.
Presently,
yourskin
skin does not display the footer because it is a copy of
neteauto
, which uses the idm.css file to display footers. The neteauto.css and yourskin.css files contain color overrides only and import the idm.css file to handle other display functions like showing footers. In the idm skin that is shown as follows, the #foot section in the idm.css file shows the footer as being disabled:
#foot {     display: none;
In the horizontal skin that is shown as follows, the #foot section in the horizontal.css file shows the footer as enabled:
#foot {              border: 1px solid black;              background-color: #AEB6D8;              padding: 4px;          display: block; /* to override parent */
The display: block reference means that
Identity Manager
displays the footer.
To get
yourskin
skin to display the footer:
  • In yourskin.css, add the following code:
    /*CONSOLE FOOTER*/ #foot {     display: block; }
In this section, you can also modify the border at the footer, background color, and padding.
