Authentication method images - SSO

Logos can be displayed for external authentication methods on the login screen.

Method images are controlled by the following template properties:

usemethodlogoimages = true
usemethodtextlink = true
methodimage.index = methodimage.index


  • usemethodlogoimages
    Ā ā†’Ā This property defines if graphical logos will be shown for method selection buttons. Default is false. If true, methodimage.index must be defined.

Example: usemethodlogoimages = true

  • usemethodtextlink
    Ā ā†’ This property defines if the name of the method is shown below the logo. Default is true. This may be a requirement for accessibility and screen reader support.

Example: usemethodtextlink = false

  • methodimage.index
    Ā ā†’ This property defines the lookup table used when matching a method name to an image. Different templates can point to different methodimage.index files. The physical location of file is defined in the ubilogin/custom/resource.index file.

Example 1: methodimage.index = methodimage.index

Example 2: methodimage.index = methodimage-relaxedstyle.index

method-image.index

The methodimage.index file provides mappings from method name to image resource name. The image resources must also be defined in the resource.index file. Image localization is possible by localized resources.

#
# methodimage.index
#
# This file defines the images of authentication methods.
# This file is used only if its name is defined in 
# the 'methodimage.index' property of the template

The asterisk is used to define a default image which is used when no other match occurs.

Localization of authentication method names

The authentication method name is shown under the authentication method logo or in a hover message. By default, the value shown in the Title field of the method settings is used for all languages.Ā 

To localize the names of authentication methods, include the technical method name and translation in each uas_XX.properties file. See example below, showing English and Spanish translations of method names:

ubilogin/custom/messages/uas_en.properties
saml.myaccount.1 = My Account
tupas.nordea.1 = Nordea Bank
google.oauth2.1 = Login with Google
ubilogin/custom/messages/uas_es.properties
saml.myaccount.1 = Mi Cuenta
tupas.nordea.1 = Banco Nordea 
google.oauth2.1 = Ingresar con Google
