Network admins can set up a Startup Dialog to present important information to all network users immediately after they log in. This modal dialog is useful for broadcasting announcements, company-wide alerts, or providing links to resources. To enable the Startup Dialog, admins can mark the appropriate checkbox and enter a title. They can configure the display settings to show the dialog every time a user logs in, only when there is new or updated content, or not at all. The dialog can include sections for announcements and custom content, which can be managed and previewed through a rich text editor. Custom titles and HTML content can also be added. This feature ensures critical information reaches users promptly and effectively.
