Adding and editing a Message of the Day
The Message of the Day (MotD) is a message you create that appears to all users when they log in to Relativity. MotD is most commonly used to inform users of planned system maintenance, but you can create any message you want to send to your users.
Note: The Sanitizer object controls whether HTML attributes are sanitized and how specific HTML content is sanitized from fields on page render. You can modify the sanitizer object to add HTML alerts and links. We recommend not modifying the default setting.
To activate or change the Message of the Day:
- Click the user drop-down menu in the upper right corner of Relativity, and then click Home.
- Click the Instance Details tab.
- Click Edit to add or edit the text of the message.
- Enter or edit your message.
- Select the Show Message of the Day checkbox to activate the MotD.
- Select the Allow Users to Hide MotD checkbox to allow users to hide the MotD.
- Click Save.
Note: If the Allow Users to Hide MotD checkbox was selected the user can select the Do not show me this message next time checkbox in the MotD. If selected, the user will not see the MotD the next time they log into Relativity, unless the Admin changes the MotD content.
