To erase all entered data and start over, click Reset.

 

General Settings

Within the General Settings table, you can customize the following elements:

http://www.sitename.com

You can also display a different CNAV page as your start-up screen. To do so, enter the name of that page here. Use the format:

directory/filename.cfm

Note that you do not need to include the entire path (i.e. www.CNAVatYourSchool.com/directory/filename). However, you MUST include the directory path with the filename.

To find the directory path and filename, use CNAV as you normally would to navigate to the page you wish to use as your start-up page. While displaying that page, do one of the following:

Example: To have CNAV start with Find It Now, People instead of Cool Stuff, enter the following address at Start page:

  people/search_people.cfm

WARNING: If you set your new start page incorrectly, the next time you log in you will see the message "Error Occurred While Processing Request. Error Diagnostic Information. An error has occurred. HTTP/1.0 404 Object Not Found." Wait a few or so and the CNAV menu bar will appear over the error message. To get rid of the error, return to My Preferences and correct the Start page specification.
