Oxygen XML Forum

Hi,

I'm wondering if it's possible to make the booktitle link to the homepage of a webhelp and/or to add a home icon that links to the home page of a webhelp?

For example, in oXygen webhelp, clicking on Oxygen XML Author 17 at the top of the page would bring you back to the Introduction page, whichever page you're on at the time.

Is that feasible?

Thanks,
Stefan

Hello,

You can use the webhelp.logo.image parameter to add a logo image that will link to the target specified by webhelp.logo.image.target.url parameter.

webhelp.logo.image (not available for the WebHelp Mobile transformation)- Specifies a path to an image displayed as a logo in the left side of the output header.
webhelp.logo.image.target.url (not available for the WebHelp Mobile transformation) - Specifies a target URL that is set on the logo image. When you click the logo image, you will be redirected to this address.

Thank you Bogdan! This should do it.

I have a follow-up question: is there an editor variable that represents the home page of the web help? Otherwise it would have to be an absolute URL, which is a bit of a nightmare if we don't know in advance where the web help will be deployed.

Thanks,
Stefan

Hello,

Unfortunately we don't have an editor variable for this.
I have registered an issue in our issue tracking system to be analyzed.

Thank you for the reply Bogdan.

I think that would be a nice feature to be able to configure a global link to the home page of the webhelp using something like an editor variable to make the link relative. Home page could be reached by clicking on the title of the webhelp or on the logo for example.

is this possible to link webhelp.logo.image.target.url to the webhelp root index.html with 20.1 now?

Oops - nevermind. this is done automatically now.
