Modify the index.jsp File

Perform the following procedure to modify the index.jsp file.

To modify the index.jsp file

1. Open the index.jsp file in a text editor. This file is located in the following folder:

   <iam_im.ear>/user_console_war/app/imcss

2. Under the <skin:update> section, add the following as the first entry:

   <skin:skin name="yourskin" filename="/app/imcss/yourskin/yourskin.properties" />
   

3. Save the file.

Identity Manager selects the default skin for the Identity Manager User Console based on which skin tag is listed first in the <skin:update> section of the index.jsp file.

As noted in the following <skin:update> section from the index.jsp file, Identity Manager will display the user console for the yourskin skin:

<skin:update>

<skin:skin name="yourskin" filename="/app/imcss/yourskin/yourskin.properties" />
<skin:skin name="idm" filename="/app/imcss/idm/im.properties" />
<skin:skin name="neteauto" filename="/app/imcss/neteauto/neteauto.properties" />
<skin:skin name="horizontal" filename="/app/imcss/horizontal/horizontal.properties" />
<skin:skin name="horizontal2" filename="/app/imcss/horizontal2/horizontal2.properties" />

</skin:update>

When you want to use a different skin, you need to change the order of the skin tags listed.
