Hi everybody,
I made a small plugin for a dramatic loginscreen to fill in the Username
when starting the wiki. Fill in any name to open the wiki. I hope you
enjoy it: https://szenio.de/LoginCurtain/

Very nice! I changed

.overlay {

right: 35%;

}

to

.overlay {

right: calc(50% - 125px);

}

to get it right in the middle :)

Really cool! Thank you for sharing Jan!

You may create a theme using sidecontrol, and login curtain if you add other required tiddlers.

Hello,
thank you for the feedback. My personal strategy so far is to use these features as a modular additions to a theme.
Perhaps I will come back to your idea.

Greetings Jan

This is cool. I like that you "lock" the wiki until you have entered a username.

Could you maybe make version where you could let the user change background and spalashscreen? That would be quite useful

Thanks for the Feedback HC,

It is not so implement this because a splashcreen is involved, so we can't easily transclude the content from a tiddler use the normal stylsheet.
----Or is there a possibility to do this?----

I will make a small guide which <div> and classes to modify to get the result you want. For example, if you do not want the skeuomorph curtain, you can just remove the gradients from .left-panel and .right-panel and replace it by a normal bg-color.

Thank you Jan

I appreciate you have made the small guide. I will have a look when I have time, and try to make a "corporate" friendly version :)

btw the site has a double icon and input field going on, I think it is because the icon tiddler is stil open in draft mode

Hi Jan, Thanks for the cool plugin! I finally got around to adding it to the Toolmap (https://dynalist.io/d/zUP-nIWu2FFoXH-oM7L7d9DM), in the Security, Startup, and Web hosting/publishing categories.

Hi Jan

I have been working on a mod of your plugin and it works but only in your login curtain wiki. when I export the plugin to an empty wiki, my mod don't work any more. I suspect, that there are some tiddler not mentioned in the mod that do some stuff. I have looked through the code, but I can't figure it out. If you could have a look I would be very grateful.

what My mod do

I have tried to explain it in detail in the wiki.

The mod use the tiddler $:/Plugins/Screenwriting/WelcomeButton (modifed) to show a list of predefined users to pic from. there is a button to go to "guest" that gives the original login prompt, and button to go to the list of predefined user again.

also adds some jazz for customisation and user management in settings.

HI Jan and everyone else.

I have solved the problem and now have a functioning mod of Jans very nice plugin :)

Thank you Jan for the info on how to tweak your plugin and thanks for building the first plugin. I think it is quite useful in a multi user wiki.

here is my mod. https://hchaase.github.io/HC-Plugins/#LoginCurtain-mod%20Introduction

This mod add

modified login background to be more professional (e.g. boring)
present a interface for picking a pre-made user.
provide a user management tab in Control Panel/Info/login-settings.
a button to create a user tiddler that also show what tiddlers the user has made or modified.
customisations of buttons, text and icons in Control Panel/Info/login-settings.

have a look
