KB43970 - Add hyperlink button on the sign-in page that redirect to another webpage.

This article will explain how to add hyperlink button (example:help button) on the sign-in page.

When using the following HTML code in the custom login page, the attribute </a> will not end as expected, which does redirect the button to desired URL.

Example:

<button type="button"> 
<a href="https://www.pulsesecure.net" target="_blank">Help</a> 
</button>

1. Extract the custom login-page (sample.zip) available in the Admin GUI > Signing In > Sign-In Pages > Upload Custom Sign-In Pages
2. Find name="btnSubmit">&nbsp; in the LoginPage.thtml and add the following code given below:

<form method="get"> 
<button type="submit" formaction="https://www.pulsesecure.net">Help</button> 
</form>

 

3. Save the LoginPage.thtml and zip all the extracted files.
4. Upload the new zip file in the Admin GUI.

To display the button when using Pulse Desktop Client, enable "Use Custom Page for the Pulse Desktop Client Logon".

Note: This does not work if you are using Embedded browser for Desktop Client
