Editable verbiage on "forgot your password" reset page
Currently, patrons can click 'I forgot my passcode' on the Vega login menu, but the following page references an 'email address' as the required information to reset their PIN, while it actually requires a barcode. Please provide libraries with the option to edit this language to accurately reflect the PIN reset process or allow this page to redirect to a library-hosted webpage for further instructions.

Derek, please open a support ticket. In the short term, there is a post-deployment step that changes the reset view to look like the attached image.
A long-term solution to add to the translation files is captured in our part 2 plans to improve translations.

We've made changes to our Vega Discover Premium Footer to force changes to the way Discover reflects to our patrons. Here is a snip of our footer that redirects the "I forgot my password" link from the clarivate email statement to our classic PAC that has the correct verbiage.
<script>
function addClickListenerToImage2() {
document.querySelectorAll('a[target*="blank"]').forEach(function(link) {
link.removeAttribute('target');
link.removeAttribute('href');
});
}
function addClickListenerToImage() {
const passcodeReplace = document.querySelector('a[class*="forgot-passcode-link"]');
if (passcodeReplace) {
passcodeReplace.addEventListener('click', function() {
// Change the window location to the new URL
window.location.href = 'https://catalog.rhpl.org/polaris/logon.aspx?forgotPassword=1&ctx=1.1033.0.0.8';
});
}
}
const observer = new MutationObserver(function(mutationsList) {
// Check for added nodes
for (const mutation of mutationsList) {
if (mutation.type === 'childList') {
addClickListenerToImage2();
addClickListenerToImage();
}
}
});
