Support for the unified user experience 编辑

Note:

“StoreFront” continues to be the name used to refer to the enterprise app store that aggregates applications and desktops from Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops sites into a single easy to use store for users. Citrix Receiver technology is now included in Citrix Workspace app. Implementing this transition in our products and documentation is an ongoing process. In-product content might still contain former names—for example, the unified experience refers to “Citrix Receiver”. Your patience during this transition is appreciated. For more detail about our new names, see https://www.citrix.com/products/.

StoreFront supports the unified user experience. The unified experience delivers a centrally managed HTML5 user experience to all web and native Citrix Workspace apps. This supports customization and featured app groups management.

Stores created using this version of StoreFront use the unified experience.

Use the StoreFront management console to do the following Citrix Receiver for Web related tasks:

• Create a Citrix Receiver for Web site.
• Change the Citrix Receiver for Web site experience.
• Select a unified Citrix Receiver for Web site to associate with the store.
• Customize the Receiver appearance.

Use Javascript and CSS to customize Citrix Receiver for Web pages.

In multiple server deployments, use only one server at a time to make changes to the configuration of the server group. Ensure that the Citrix StoreFront management console is not running on any of the other servers in the deployment. Once complete, propagate your configuration changes to the server group so that the other servers in the deployment are updated.

Note:

If using XenApp 6.x, applications set to Stream to client or Streamed if possible, otherwise accessed from a server are not supported with the unified experience enabled.

Create a Citrix Receiver for Web website

A Citrix Receiver for Web site is created automatically, whenever you create a store. You can also create additional Receiver for Web sites using this procedure.

1. On the Windows Start screen or Apps screen, locate and click the Citrix StoreFront tile.
2. Select the Stores node in the left pane of the Citrix StoreFront management console and, in the Actions pane, click Manage Receiver for Web Sites > Add and follow the wizard.

Select a unified Citrix Receiver for Web site to associate with the store

When a new store is created using StoreFront, a Citrix Receiver for Web site is automatically created and associated with the store. Citrix Receiver for Web sites use the unified experience. When a store has multiple Receiver for Web sites, you need to select which Receiver for Web site is displayed when users access the store using Citrix Workspace app.

1. On the Windows Start screen or Apps screen, locate and click the Citrix StoreFront tile.
2. Select the Stores node in the left pane of the Citrix StoreFront management console, select a store in the center pane, and click Configure Unified Experience in the Actions pane. If you do not have a Citrix Receiver for Web website created, a message displays including a link to the Add Receiver for Web site wizard.
3. Select the default Receiver for Web site which Citrix Workspace app clients display when users access this store.
4. Click OK.

Customize the Citrix Receiver appearance

2. Select the Stores node in the left pane of the Citrix StoreFront management console and in the Actions pane, click Manage Receiver for Web Sites and click Configure.
3. Select Customize Appearance and make selections to customize how the website displays after logging on.

Further customization using Javascript and CSS

Note:

In the examples in this section, add Javascript to the script.js file (for example in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Citrix\StoreWeb\custom), and add CSS to the style.css file in the same directory.

Add a static header to the login page in Receiver for Web

Here ‘static’ here means fixed text like a welcome message, or a company name. For something that changes, such as a news message or server status, see Add a dynamic header to the login page in Receiver for Web.

You can add static text in four positions using the following lines of javascript:

$('.customAuthHeader').html("Example one - top of login screen");
$('.customAuthTop').html("Example two - above login box");
$('.customAuthBottom').html("Example three - below login box");
$('.customAuthFooter').html("Example four - bottom of login screen");
