IWP interface questions

Featured Replies

I am new to IWP and have a few questions regarding the user side of IWP served via FMSA 8.0 through a static IP address:

- Can it be set up that the user visiting the site to automatically logged into iwp with an authenticated user profile, not a guest profile?

- Can it be setup to bypass the the iwp homepage and authentication page/ If so, my database can present the user with my own login and username requirement that they need to put in to gain access to the database the website.

- Can it be setup that the url is clean so that the users are not seeing the filemaker address in the url. For example, it would be www.website.com, not www.website.com/fmi/iwp.

- When filemaker logs them out, I need them to be sent to a website of my choice; can there be a script or automated function that will do this?

Thanks in advance:)

With the exception of the URL display, the answers to all your questions are YES. Some of the techniques are in use by FM hosting companies too.

These are all covered in the IWP documentation installed with FM10 - take a good read, and slowly! The documentation is concise, but with few examples.
