  Page Name	Description
  vblogin	Opens the View Builder login page.
  mpv	Opens the public views index page. This page lists all existing public views.
  public	Opens the general public view.
  viewname_mpv	Opens the specified public view. Viewname is automatically generated when the view is created in the View Builder.

  login	Opens the user login page.
  passchange	Opens the change password page.

If you are accessing the Dashboard View Builder using the Mozilla Firefox® browser, there is a security setting that must be changed. When you are creating a Public or Group View, the browser setting security.checkloaduri must be set to false so that the View Builder can check image dimensions (for example, an image file you are using for the logo in your banner). This setting change is required due to the fact that Firefox does not allow access to file properties by default.

Note: This setting change is only required for the Dashboard administrators using the View Builder. Dashboard users do not need to make any changes.
