# Customizing Web Stations

> Tailor ABBYY FlexiCapture Web Stations through the customization view: change the logo, header, footer, icon, links, languages, and session lifetime.

To access the customization view of a Web Station, use the URL below:

**http(s)://\<server>/Flexicapture12/\<station>/WinAuth/Custom**\
where **\<server>** is the name of a computer where a your web server is installed, **\<station>** is the name of the Web Station, and **WinAuth** is the Windows authentication parameter.

The customization view is a page with an \<iframe> element that opens an embedded version of the corresponding Web Station.

The \<iframe> element opens only the workspace of the Web Station, without the header and the footer. The layout of the page can be changed to comply with your company's design guidelines. The page can be additionally customized to include action buttons that will control the contents of \<iframe> and web links.

## Sample scenarios:

<Accordion title="Changing the logo, header, and footer">
  To change the logo, replace the **logo.png** file in the **customContent** directory and, if needed, configure its display in the **custom.css** file.

  <Note>
    You can also edit the page layout by making changes to **Index.cshtml**.
  </Note>
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Changing links to your company website and other resources">
  You can add links to third-party resources into **Index.cshtml**.
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Changing the Web Station's icon to be shown in the browser window">
  To change the icon of the Web Station, replace the **icon.ico** file.

  <Note>
    If required, modify the icon parameters and the path to the icon in **Index.cshtml**.
  </Note>
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Changing the name of the page to be shown in the browser window">
  The name of the page can be set in the **\<title>** tag in the **Index.cshtml** file.
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Hiding the drop-down list of languages">
  To hide the list of languages, remove the corresponding element from **Index.cshtml** or hide it by modifying the corresponding style in **custom.css**.

  <Note>
    To set a default language, use the **FCUserLang** cookie file, where a user interface language can be specified using a standard abbreviation like "en," "ru," etc.
  </Note>
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Opening a Web Station">
  To open a Web Station in \<iframe>, call one of the following two methods in the **onLoad()** function in the **custom.js** file.

  * To open the Web Verification Station, call the **verify()** method.
  * To open the Web Scanning Station, call the **scan()** method.

  These methods can also be called from page elements, so as to switch between Web Stations interactively.
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Changing the session lifetime">
  To set the lifetime of an user session, modify the values of the following keys in the **web.config** file of the corresponding Web Station:

  1. Set **SessionRefreshInterval** to 1000.
  2. Set **SessionInactiveLifetimeInMinutes** to the preferred time in minutes.

  If the user remains inactive for the specified period of time, he/she will be logged out and redirected to the login page.
</Accordion>

Since the user page uses embedded versions of Web Stations, you can also use the API messages described in [Integrating Web Stations into third-party systems](/flexi-capture/fc-integration).
