Need some help with changing the default splash screen in telnet window on the web interface.
According to wiki, by default it points to ../text/synch.asc
I tried both replacing the synch.asc with my modified file (did not change on web page), and also adding:
[web]
ftelnet_splash = ../text/tvri.ans
(also tried ..\text\tvri.ans as it is a Windows host)
...but the moment I add this change to ..\ctrl\modopts.ini the web server throws an error:
!JavaScript c:\sbbs\webv4\root\index.xjs.ssjs line 6: Error: can't open undefined/lib/init.js: No such file or directory
Removing the lines fixes it. So how can I change this splash screen and if the default file/location is correct how come editing the file does nothing?

First of all, does it work with the default screen named "../text/synch.ans"
; Path to a .ans file to use as the ftelnet splash screen ftelnet_splash=../text/synch.ans

Did you shut down the web page, then reopen it with the new default everytime you made a change. This has to be done.
Also, did you try renaming your ansi file to splash.ans. You should not have to, but it's worth a shot to narrow down a problem. I'm running two spash screens over here, and the sring works. ( that requires some modding however)
...but the moment I add this change to ..\ctrl\modopts.ini the web server
throws an error:
!JavaScript c:\sbbs\webv4\root\index.xjs.ssjs line 6: Error: can't open undefined/lib/init.js: No such file or directory
I think that is due to changing the default without restating your browser. I found out the hard way, webv4 needs to be restarted (closed, then reopened) before changes will work.
Removing the lines fixes it. So how can I change this splash screen and if
the default file/location is correct how come editing the file does nothing?
try shutting down the the web page in your browser, then going back into it.
