Admins have the ability to configure and maintain a range of branding. Using the "themes" option they can:

  • Configure default branding
  • Build a library of alternative branding (useful for seasonal campaigns or upcoming company events of significance)

Creating a Theme:
Creating a theme is easy. Once themes are enabled by your CSM , simply navigate to Admin > Themes

You will see your default branding in the "Default theme" option. It will show as active.
You cannot edit this theme as it is active. To create new branding, click on "Add Theme". You can now create a theme in five easy steps.

Top tips:

  • You don't have to change all of the default settings to save your new theme
  • When creating a new theme we surface up the assets and settings from your last created theme (just in case you want to reuse some of the elements)

Step 1: Give your theme a name

  • The first step is to give your theme a name.
  • Note - this name will not be displayed outside of settings.

Step 2: Upload or select a banner
Bring your branding to life by uploading or changing your branded banner.
The recommended banner spec is as follows:
  • Dimensions: 2000px x 474px File Type: PNG, JPG, JPEG, JFIF or GIF up to 10MB
  • Safe space for key text +/- imagery: 1290px x 135px centred

You can preview your theme in two ways:

  1. By right clicking the three-dot ellipsis and selecting "Preview"
  2. Within the "Edit" feature itself. We show you what your theme will look like with each change you make.

It's easy to delete a theme too. Simply click on the three-dot ellipsis to the right of the theme you would like to edit and select "Delete".
