I already searched on google, wiki, etc… and I could not figure out how to do it.
I have to display a specific message every time someone from specific group logs in, the best way to have it, is to display it on the home page.
For example I want to display the message “Escalation phone # 123-123-1234” on the top or on the left navigation bar.
I’m sure that it should be possible to do that, but I don’t know how to implement it.
For certain classes of message RT::Extension::ServiceUpdates could be useful,
but it’s undocumented and seems to make some assumptions about what’s a good
thing to do i.e; it prevents access when a message is in place.
Apache::Motd is a
more general solution, but it sounds like you want to create a nodelet:
Make a plugin with an html/Elements/PluginName:
<&|/Widgets/TitleBox,
title => loc(“PluginName”) &>
... #Do stuff here
</&>
<%INIT>
… #or here, to check user group and display your message
</%INIT>
