Changing default page Advanced Client to Basic Client

Revision as of 09:03, 18 November 2007 by Anthony.rasat (talk | contribs)

Background

Advanced Client is Zimbra Web Client default mode which some people consider too slow particularly on older computers. Basic Client mode is faster (for bandwidth-challenged connection) and more tolerant to browser variants (notably accepting use of Konqueror web browser from KDE version 3.5.6). Next are steps taken to change the default behaviour Advanced Client mode first to Basic Client mode first in Zimbra Web Client. These steps require changing Zimbra options from command line interface and adding a webserver application which is not from Zimbra install package (even though Apache webserver is a common webserver option offering from any modern Free/Open Source Software operating system).

NOTE: This will be a feature in Zimbra 5.0. We have a single login page with a pull-down that defaults to the best client for your browser/PC. You can also select 'Preferred' which will look at your user pref which can be set in options to pick your favorite client. --KevinH 10:08, 7 July 2007 (CDT)
