  • The login banner does not reset to default so if affected by this issue it is not possible to simply create a new banner message.

Workaround:
  • Download and open the attached formattedText.htm file in a web browser.

  • Copy the 'Login Message' text and paste it in the Content box when creating a login message in Aria Operation.
    • To create a Login Message go to Administration - Global Settings - User Access, scroll down to Enable and Edit the Login Message.
  • Type the required login message in front of the 'Login Message' text and then delete the 'Login Message', this will ensure the HTML formatting is saved.
  • Save the new message.
