Editing ScienceDirect Institutional Text Messages

You can personalize an institution's text messages for the ScienceDirect Registration/Login page, and the ScienceDirect Full Text Access page.

To edit an institutional message

When you enter the Edit Institutional Messages page, the default Login/Register Text and Full-Text Access Text messages are displayed. Use the following steps to edit your institutional messages:

1. In the Login/Register Text Message frame, from the Use Inherited Login/Register... drop-down, select whether or not to use the inherited value of the Super-Account, Account, or Department.
   • If you select No, in Login/Register Text Message, enter custom text to appear on the Login/Registration page.
2. In the Full-Text Access Text Message frame, from the Use Inherited Full Text... drop-down, select whether or not to use the inherited value of the Super-Account, Account, or Department.
   • If you select No, in Full-Text Access Text Message, enter custom text to appear on the Full Text Access page.
3. In the Remote Access Text Message frame, from the Use Inherited Remote Access Text Message... drop-down, select whether or not to use the inherited value for the Super-Account, Account, or Department.
• If you select No, in Remote Access Text Message, enter custom text to appear on the Remote Access page.

  Note	For accounts that are configured to use Shibboleth or self-managed remote access, this message will be automatically generated.

4. Click Save. The View ScienceDirect Institutional Text Messages page opens.

Notes- Inherited Values

• If you select Yes, the message from the inherited Super-Account, Account, or Department (based on hierarchical rules) appears in the Inherited Value text field. This field will be uneditable.
• If you would like to use part of the inherited message, copy the text, choose No, and then paste the text to edit.
• If you select No, you can enter a custom message.
• If you select No, and then click Save without entering a value for the text message, then the custom message, which overrides any inherited message, is empty. The message displays as empty text on both the View Institutional Text Messages page and on related ScienceDirect pages.
