3.1 Stylesheet and Logo Customization
The color scheme, graphics, and optional portal logos of Moab Access Portal
®
can be fully customized to accomodate any customer's needs. Only basic
stylesheet skills and an understanding of URLs is required to fit Access
Portal to your organization.
Stylesheet (Color, Layout, etc.)
Access Portal uses a stylesheet to define the general look-and-feel of the
portal. This stylesheet can be edited, or copied and then modified. The sytlesheet is
found at
webapps/map/include/default.css. An alternate stylesheet is
also provided at webapps/map/include/spring.css to demonstrate how simple
it is to change color themes. If you make your own stylesheet file, you will need to update the
$CONFIG-DIR/map.properties file to reflect the changes. This is done by
updating the THEME parameter to reference the
newly created stylesheet. After changing the map.properties file you will
need to restart the servlet container for changes to take effect.
Company/Portal Title and Logos
Access Portal also allows for administrators to change the default portal title
and to add company/portal logos to
the interface. The
map.properties parameters PORTAL-TITLE,
PORTAL-LOGO,
and CLIENT-LOGO change the main title of the
portal, add a centered logo above the title, and insert a left-justified image to
the title, respectively.
Other Icons
Many other icons found throughout the portal (except for the left-hand
navigational icons) can be changed. The icons' graphic files are defined in the
map.properties file and can be modified by updating corresponding
parameters. Refer to Appendix A for a complete
list and description of each icon parameter.
