Option to change picture on MC Router ...

Opened this issue ยท 21 comments

MC have lots of option to change pictures and text on it, but what about MC Router? Is there an option to change this text
image
to a customised text????? Possibly MC Router to get this text from a MC that is connected to or from MC where it is downloaded from.....
Thanks.

Right now there is no option to customize the MeshCentral Router text of picture. You can to download the source code that make the change that way. Not sure how I would make it customizable without breaking the signature.

I have a couple ideas. I will update later if it works

It can be done but, I can't quite do it myself. Unless..

It involves binary modification after it is compiled. Which I have found example code for, but frankly don't understand exactly.

@Ylianst if I was to attempt to implement this, based off code that is already available. would you prefer the image embedded or a link to a website?

This is a good question. If we change the branding after connecting to the web site, this is much easier to do. I can have the web site give the settings information to MeshCentral Router and we can arrange the UI. But, the problem is if we want to brand MeshCentral Router before it connects. I am not sure how we would do that? We could embed data into the executable when MeshCentral Router is downloaded from the server but that is a lot of work.

Or have the router literally modify itself

I should be able to reimplement the code used in the server to modify it locally

I'll create a mockup

If you want you can assign it to me

@cookta2012 Thanks a lot in advance!!!!!

Im still working on it (Day job keeping me busy) 25%

@cookta2012 is there any update on this case? Thanks

40%

I just added customizations for MeshCentral Router. Download the customization sample pack here. You basically create a "customization" folder at the location of the MeshCentral executable and put the text and images from the pack in that folder. When you run MeshCentral Router, it will grab the images and text.

MC2-RouterCustomization

This will be in the next version of MeshCentral Router 1.4 and included into MeshCentral v0.7.74. Let me know if that works.

Published MeshCentral v0.7.74 with latest MeshCentral Router v1.4 with new customization support. Let me know if that works.

Will test it in next week or so, will report back as soon as test is done. Thanks!

Thanks, no rush. Let me know what you think.

All working as expected. Thanks a lot!!!!
Closing the issue now.

It does work, but window title remains the same.

Actually window title is customised also, but after successful user log in it changes back to "MeshCentral Router"
