PASI Settings - Edit myPass - Please Note - English Text

This is used by specific PASIprep users to manage the data that will be displayed in the myPass welcome page “Please Note” English Text section.

Data Fields

Field Name Description
Please Note (English Text) The only text formatting available is the ability to insert any number of blank lines. This allows the user to visually separate lines with one or more blank lines. From the user interface the user can only enter a maximum of 2000 characters.

To display text as a hyperlink, the content will be included in double square brackets “" "”, similar to Wiki syntax:

  • [[https://www.google.com]]: Will create a link with text that matches
  • [[https://www.google.com|Click Here]]: Will create a link with the text “Click Here”.
  • [[https://www.google.com|Click Here|More Stuff]]: Will have same output as the previous example (More Stuff is ignored). We don’t anticipate the need to put “|” as link text, and we think it’s a reasonable constraint to not support this in a link, either.
  • [[]]: Will output nothing.
  • [[mailto:email@email.com]]: Will create a link to launch a new email.
  • [[mailto:email@email.com|Email Here]]: Will create a link with the text “Email Here” that will launch a new email.
  • Leading and trailing whitespace for the link or anchor text will be trimmed.
  • Other more complex cases have been left as undefined with the only requirement that it not be possible to break the myPass Welcome Page with anything that can be put here. As before: HTML entities are escaped to avoid undesirable inputs from changing the pages behavior (i.e. script injection).
