Disable browser caching of xap files |
Forces machines running Lucity Web to download all of the .xap files from the server every time they login, rather than relying on locally cached copies. This setting should be set to "TRUE" only in cases in which clients are unable to run the dashboard using Windows Authentication. Setting the value to "TRUE" will resolve that problem, but performance will also be slightly slower. Contact Lucity if you think you need to set the value to "TRUE." |

Login ID used for Citizen Website |
The Lucity Login ID for the Citizen Web site is created during the installation process. The default ID is "PublicWebUser"; however, this ID can be edited if desired. The specified citizen Login ID needs to belong to the PublicWebGroup in Lucity Security. This group has run and add permissions to use the public forms (Run - Work, Run - Work Requests, General Add - Work Requests, and Run - General Modules). Additional users must be added to this group to access the public web forms. This login ID is also used for tracking purposes in Lucity Desktop. |
App Admin |
Releases Licenses when browser is closed |
When enabled and a user closes Lucity Web the program will automatically try to drop all licenses the use was holding in that session. This causes a small pop-up screen to open and close. We allow agencies to disable this because some browsers might try to stop this and ask the user if they want to allow the window to close. If this is disabled licenses that are still being held by users that are not longer using them will be released as other users need them. |

* "CLOSE" will most likely cause the browser to display a message stating, "The user is attempting to close the browser, do you want to let them continue?" If the setting is set to "CLOSE," Lucity recommends an agency also use a bit of javascript to open the Citizen Request form in a separate window. For example, to open the submittal form, the URL might be:
<a href="http://localhost:2296/Default.aspx?FUI=CleanGraffiti" target="_blank" onclick="window.open('http://localhost:2296/Default.aspx?FUI=CleanGraffiti','_blank','left=0,top=0,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no, status=yes'); return false;">Click here to submit a graffiti cleaning request.</a>
If the window.open javascript is used and the system setting is set to "CLOSE," the Request Submittal window closes and returns the user back to your site.
