GDPR - Privacy Policy - Adding text under the login rectangle

[gabbe]

Hi folks!

as you probably know, we in Europe have some strange legal creatures which are constantly hunting who collect data even from public sources.

Is mandatory putting a privacy disclaimer or the admin can receive an astronomical penalty. It's also requested a nag screen for cookie acknowledgment but, as i can see, Espocrm leaves no cookies so the matter could be reduced only to the privacy policy text.

I have tried some solutions proposed by experts here, but no success for me.

I especially followed these links :

Code Snippet in head tag - EspoCRM Open Source Community Forum

Changing the footer.tpl doesn't work when enabling "Use Cache" - EspoCRM Open Source Community Forum

I'm desperate...

I cannot believe there isn't a simple way to add a text row which can contain a link to textfile containing the privacy policy.

Every help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and sorry for my bad English.

You will have to create a custom log in page, as described here: https://forum.espocrm.com/forum/deve...n-landing-page
It works, but is a bit of work to do.

Thanks Shalmaxb,

ok, so is not possible to add some text to the existing code. Instead the portal inner logic force you adding a different "theme" or, at least, cloning what already is created and place the reused code (with all the proper modifications) in the dedicated folder under i.e. custom/ directories.

Am i at least close to the thruth?

Thanks for your reply

In espoCRM everything you want to customize, reflects what is alrady present in a default installation. As soon as you customize anything, it will be saved in the folders custom and/or client/custom. These folders have priority, when the app starts, what means, if you e.g. modified anything in the contacts entity, there will be automatically created an entity contacts in the custom folder and on start the files for that custom entity will be invoked instead of the default contact entity.
The same is for the login page. The script files for that are in the client folder and as there is no way to create a custom login by the GUI, you will have to create the same files as those in the client folder manually and put them into the right client/custom folders. In adition you will have to call these custom files by appending them in the custom metadata app folder. You will have to create all the files mentioned in the other post (see link).
Regarding the template content for the log in page, it is generally HTML, so you can write there nearly anything you could write in a normal HTML file. If you have a look at the template file, you will understand.
Create exactly as proposed in the other thread, rebuild and clear cache and you customized log in page will apear instaed of the default one.
