Customize footer content

We can change the appearance of the administrative console user interface by customizing the footer.

We can add or modify footer content to alter the appearance of the administrative console user interface.

The default footer area is defined in the ui.properties file. The following property keys in the ui.properties file define the footer and specify its visibility and height.

Property key Default value Description
ui.footer.isVisible no Specifies whether the footer is visible. By default the footer is disabled.
ui.footer.URL This value is left blank by default.

Location of the HTML or JSP file that provides the footer. We can enter a URL. Alternatively, put this file in the directories\itim_console.war\custom directory (if this directory does not exist, we must create it), and prefix the path name with /itim/console/custom in the ui.properties file.

ui.footer.height 50 Enter the pixel height of the footer.
