Cisco Meraki Hosted Splash Page Variables

Cisco Meraki defines a set of variables to represent custom values in the HTML and CSS of the click-through splash page, the splash page with username/password login, or the blocked access page. Each of these pages is editable within a splash page theme under the Configure tab on the Splash Page page.

The following pages are used for the full Splash Page experience:

  • auth.html: Displayed for the splash page with username/password login.
  • blocked.html: Displayed when a user or device has been blocked.
  • continue.html: Displayed for the click-through splash page.
  • oauth.html: Displayed for splash pages with oauth enabled.
    Note: Only supported with the Modern splash theme.
  • prepaid.html: Displayed for billing splash with prepaid codes.
  • sms.html: Displayed for splash pages with sms auth.

 

When a user is served a splash page, each of these custom strings will be replaced with its underlying value in a simple substitution. The variables can be used anywhere in the HTML or CSS. They should only be used in places where the underlying value will make sense.

For example, the variable $MERAKI:CONTENT2_LINK_COLOR$ will return a value representing a color in the form "#rrggbb" and thus is appropriate for use in style sheets or HTML style attributes where a color is required.
