Web Interface Customization

Web Interface Customization

Using Password Manager Administration site, you can customize the Web interface of the Self-Service and Helpdesk sites, i.e. change company and product logos and modify the sites’ color scheme.

To customize the Web interface of the Self-Service and Helpdesk sites, on the Administration site, open General Settings and click the Web Interface Customization tab.

For more information, see Web Interface Customization.

Customization of Password Policies List

When a user changes or resets password on the Self-Service site, the password policy rules specified for the user's application directory partition can be displayed on the page where the user is required to enter a new password.

To modify the list of password policy rules displayed on the Self-Service site, edit the rules specified for the application directory partition on the Password Policies tab of the Administration site.

For more information, see Configuring Password Policy Rules.

You can customize the Password strength meter on the Helpdesk site and Self-Service site.

To enable Password strength meter:

  • In the web.config file, set the value of PasswordStrengthMeterEnable to true as follows:

</appSettings>

To disable Password strength meter, set the value of PasswordStrengthMeterEnable to false.

Appendix D: Feature imparities between the legacy and the new Self-Service Sites

Password Manager does not provide feature parity between the legacy Self-Service Site (PMUser) and new Self-Service Site (PMSelfService) for self-service related activities. All new feature developments are only done for the new Self-Service Site (PMSelfService) site.

The following new features are affected:

  • Password Manager Secure Token Server: The Authenticate with external provider action cannot be used on the legacy Self-Service Site (PMUser).
