Creating a password custom dialog

[ConorH16]

Hi guys, Is there a way to create a custom dialog that displays a password entry field? Then, if you get it wrong it doesn't let you continue onto the next page?

 

Many thanks in advance,

Conor

If you are talking about:

FileMakers’s Accounts & Privileges & Passwords Security, No.

 

If you are talking about creating some sort of security schema, it isn’t a good idea. You can find more information about this in the Security Concepts Topic.

Yes. Have you tried reading the manual about custom dialogs? Or even just looking at the custom dialog script step?

[ConorH16]

Yes, I have tried looking at the manual... There is nothing.

[bruceR]

Wrong.

Tried what it says on that page already. 

 

Ok, changed my plan.

 

I am now just going to create a script that requires a user to re-login and they are then redirected to the desired layout.

 

Is there a way to either prevent the user from cancelling out of the re-login form or a way to end the script so that they can't continue?

 

Thanks!

Scratch that last post. Worked it out

What is "the next page" ?

Next layout? Next tab? Next record?
