Eric SilvaOnce Ultra Base Navigation is enabled, users will automatically be redirected to “/ultra” when they visit your domain. However, if a user has previously bookmarked the My Institution tab or any other tabs, those tabs won’t be redirected. To help transition users to the new Ultra interface, we added a message at the top of our old My Institution Page. Additionally, we removed all modules on that page, so there was no reason for users to go back to it.
Steps
- Create a new Module
Create a new HTML module with your message. I’ve included the HTML code of our notice if you’d like to use it.
- Set the Module as a Header
Navigate to Tabs and Modules > Tabs > My Institution Tab > Default Layout, and select your new module as the header.
- Remove any Fixed Modules
From the Default Layout page, scroll down to Fixed Modules, unselect any selected modules, and click Submit.
- Remove any Additional Modules
Navigate to Tabs and Modules > Tabs > My Institution Tab > Default Content, and uncheck any displayed modules.
