Here you will find notes/solutions/etc about using a DFW instance in private/public config.
Azure Authentication
Employees must log in to view private pages in DFW. Login authenticates against the Azure web application, which controls user access. You will need to provide a list of domain URLs to your Azure administrator to use this authentication process.
Login / Logout
Employees who log in to view private pages will need a way to log out of the website. To provide this functionality, the utility menu includes a Log out link button.
The Log out link toggles between Log in for the anonymous user and Log out for the authenticated user. If you do not wish to use this feature in the utility menu simply disable it.
The example below shows the utility menu before employee login.
The blue Log in button is displayed in the top right.
The example below shows the utility menu after employee login.
The black Log out button is displayed in the top right.
Note: After the employee logs out of the DFW site, the Log out button will toggle back to the Log in button.
Search
The search feature provides an internal search of both public and private pages. Search will not reveal private page results unless the employee is already logged into the DFW website.
This example shows the search results when the words human resources are entered into the search box.
The description beneath the page title and breadcrumb is sourced from the Description field in Meta Tags. The example below shows the text entered in the meta tags description field.
Public/Private Pages
Private pages require user authentication to view. To make a page a Private page, enable the checkbox next to Private.
