Starting from 2023.3.0, Starter kit provides a user interface for managing logos and colors. It is now possible to change the logos/pictures and the colors used on portal.
Configuration capabilities
The interface allow you to configure
Logos :
Portal (Header)
Portal (login Page).
Backoffice (Header)
Portal (homepage) and Backoffice (login page)
Favicon
Colors.
Main color
Secondary color
Please note that these colors and logo are now automatically displayed in the email template sent by the platform. The logo displayed in the emails is the one from the portal's login page.
Colors
Under the “Appearance” and “Logos & Colors” menu two inputs allow for changing colors.
Simply enter the hexadecimal color codes for the main and secondary colors, and save the changes. The colors will automatically apply to the portal and the notification emails sent by the platform. It may be necessary to clear the browser cache to see the changes.
Activate the color switch for Starter kit projects older than 2023.3
To enable the color switch feature we have to :
Add a new parameter inside the used wediaportalrc configuration and set it to true =>
"useServerStyles": true,
"environments": { "starter-kit": { "": { "useServerStyles": true, "useServerConfigResolution": true, "deploy_server": "https://starter-kit.wedia-group.com", "vue_app_config_path": "portal", "appConfigs": { "portal": "starter-kit", "wediaConfig": "__wedia_config", "portal@picker": "starter-kit@$starter-kit-picker", "portal@picker@office": "starter-kit@$starter-kit-picker@office", "portal@picker@office@outlook": "starter-kit@$starter-kit-picker@office@outlook", "_postProcessors": [ [ "", "starter-kit-mobile" ] ] } }, "development": { "vue_app_api_path": "https://starter-kit.wedia-group.com" } } }
set jspMode to true
The above-mentioned conditions are also used to enable the favicon switch. The favicon changes can be done from wedia-config “Appearance” / “Logos & Colors”, but will only be effective if the conditions are fulfilled.
The colors switch is allowed by endpoints added with PACKAGED_Appearance_Config. Therefore to use this new feature the plugin must be activated
Logos
Under the new “Appearance” > “ Logos and colors” menu, four inputs allow for changing the logos.
There are some rules to be followed for the uploaded files. They are always specified for each logo by the 'Authorized formats' information on the view.
After filling in the 4 logos, save to apply the changes, which will then be directly visible on the portal and in the backoffice.
For developpers
For the logos and the favicon the behaviour is the same as if the change has been made from the old admin : we write values for i18n keys of bov3/wcm
The written values are paths to the files under the san : san/bov3/css/v11/customerupload/filename.ext
