You can create a list of websites that users can launch from user defined fields (UDFs), projects websites, and Notebook topics, by double clicking on the website and selecting Launch.
For any text field in edit mode, users can right click on the website, then choose to either launch or copy the site.
To add a website, complete the following steps:
- Log in to P6 Professional.
- Choose Admin, Admin Preferences.
- Click the Exception Site List tab.
- Click Add and enter the website.
- Mark the checkbox next to a website to make it clickable by users.
Here are some rules on how to specify websites:
- Website paths cannot contain spaces. You can include %20 in a path to represent a space.
For example: http://www.google.com/Primavera%20Applications
- Wildcards (*) are allowed. You can add https://* and http://* to allow all sites that begin with these roots to be launchable.
- Here are some examples of entries and how they would be handled:
Website paths must begin any of the following:
https://
http://
ftps://
ftp://
mailto:
telnet://Exception site : https://docs.google.com/document
This would allow:
https://docs.google.com/document
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MCS2FhSUdNIOC3qdgyoW-HO8F7bWH8OpxWs9VbdcXKQ
but would NOT allow:
http://docs.google.com/document/d/1MCS2FhSUdNIOC3qdgyoW-HO8F7bWH8OpxWs9VbdcXKQ (due to http instead of https)
https://docs.google.com/abc (due to /abc not matching /document)
Exception site : https://*.google.com
This would allow:
https://drive.google.com
https://drive.google.com/u/1/my-drive
https://docs.google.com/abc/def
But would NOT allow:
https://mygoogle.com (due to not matching the template *.google.com)
https://google.com (due to not matching the template *.google.com)
If you enable sites using the wildcard, but also disable an explicit site that would be covered by the enabled wildcard entry, the explicit site is enabled. For example:
Enabled (checked): https://*.google.com
Disabled (unchecked): https://drive.google.com
The website https://drive.google.com will be clickable.
Exception site : ftp://downloadeverything.com/oracleapps
This would allow:
ftp://downloadeverything.com/oracleapps/cegbu/p6.ear
But would NOT allow:
http://downloadeverything.com/oracleapps/p6.ear (due to mismatch of protocol)
