      If it's a desktop computer, the welcome screen is OK
      but mobile devices have a problem
      Is such a normal situation?

        mobile devices generally have a captive-portal detection & automatically open the portal page.
        this automatic browser is generally crap. it doesn't always play nice with javascript & css.

        try manually opening the page on the mobile device with the chrome or firefox app ... it will probably be fine

        best bet is to remove all unnecessary stuff from the portal page, try to use plain html5

          we don't want html to be plain plain plain
          spelling limitations, letters, numbers etc.
          Therefore css and js codes are required

                css files : dono.
                But the stripped down, OS controlled mini browser, used to login into captive portholes doesn't do "cookies" "cache" and all kind of script things like javascript. Your js files will be ignored.

                Edit : and where are the logs ??

                    How to make a welcome page without css and js

                    Use the build in page as an example.

                    @ahmetakkaya said in Login Opening Page:

                    need number letter restrictions on page

                    That's self imposed.
                    Just have the user press the Ok button.
                    Write some PHP or whatever 'web server' side code to do the checking work for you. If that fails, the login error page will show up.

                    " number account registration"

                    so when the login goes wrong, the login error page is displayed, which is / could be the same page as the login page, with extra an $error message shown (see build in login error page as an examole). Use that one to show example how the user could login.
                    You could even link a clickable URL that points to a PDF with full instructions on the login page.

                    Respect the golden rule : keep it simple.
                    Because, as said before, the "browsers" that hit bthe captive portal login page are not always the fully equipped FF/Chrome/Edge browsers.
                    When you write your own captive portal login page, you should have some high and Chinees phones (the expensive and the low bud ones), some American phones (those are only expensive), and some off the shelves classic Apple and Windows PC at hand to test using all ( !! ) available browsers. If some device using some browser fails, you remove that 'gadget' that brook on your login page. You wind up having a simple page.
                    Nice advantage : easy to maintain.
                    Remember : that page is to login, your not advertising there, or selling something on that page (are you ??).

                    No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.

                      logo.png, the welcome page is still not coming again.

                      Won't it be a visual theme

                      keeping it simple is a bad restriction

                        @ahmetakkaya You can also perform this debugging on mobile devices.

                        If you are having issues on some mobile phone, then you need to debug your CSS / JS directly on the mobile phone

                        Please see https://medium.com/samsung-internet-dev/secret-devtools-recipe-for-mobile-web-developers-3b8a75bfee4b for how to so that

                          I'm using style sheets for my captive prtal login page, as shown above. CSS files are just special html files.
                          What (might) pose problems are the script files like the .js files.

                              What do you mean ?

                              The build in default login page works ?

                              Your captive portal login page looks like this :

                              	if(isset($config['voucher'][$cpzone]['enable'])) {
                              ?>

                              		</div>

                              </html>
                              

                              edit : if the css contains error, then yeah, the browser might complain or bail out.
                              It's debugging time, as explained above.
