Adding an External Link to the Navigation Toolbar
It is possible to add an additional link into the HMP navigation toolbar that goes to an address of your choice:
- SSH into HMP and elevate to root access.
Issue the following commands, where
<url>
is the full URL including the protocol identifier (e.g.https://
), and <label> is the label used for the link in the toolbar:CODEset_config calypso.system_settings.externalUrlForLink.url "<url>" set_config calypso.system_settings.externalUrlForLink.label "<label>"
For example:
CODEset_config calypso.system_settings.externalUrlForLink.url "https://www.haivision.com" set_config calypso.system_settings.externalUrlForLink.label "Haivision Website"
Note
- The link appears for all users and is not customizable using the procedure at Customizing the Navigation Toolbar for Each Role.
- The URL must point to an external webpage and not hosted on your HMP.
The change takes affect immediately. Refresh your web browser to see the results:
Removing the External Link
To remove the link from the toolbar use a blank string in the URL command:
set_config calypso.system_settings.externalUrlForLink.url ""
