Customize WebUI

Post by FiFtHeLeMeNt »

Hello Board ;
I am trying to customize webui , so I have downloaded the source tarball and after extracting it , I edit index.html in web directory and compile the daemon. everything goes smooth except that my customization doesnt show up when I run the daemon ! it seems it is not using the index.html file from web folder , can you please help ?
Regards

First, you don't have to compile transmission with the new resources for your custom web UI in order for you to use it.
It should use an index.html or perhaps an index.php for the primary entry point. (If I'm not mistaken, the resources should be IN the executable.)

Maybe you should build a web UI first and integrate it later. Or you could use the web UI I have created: Shift.

Thx killemov, I got how it works now. I thought web files are bundled inside daemon which is not true , in my distro which is debian 6.0 , it was using webui files from /usr/share/transmission/web path. so I just customized these files and everything works fine now.
