Global theme
Choose the "Platform name", the "Accent colour" of buttons and links, the "Header colour" and the "Text header colour". If the header is dark, choose a light text colour.
Under "Editor colours preset", choose the colours that people can use in articles and comments. "Reset to default colours" restores the original list.
Platform logo
Upload the square logo shown at the top of the navigation bar in the new app layout. The old layout does not use it. Use a PNG or JPG file of at least 256 × 256 pixels. You can crop it after the upload.
Login form logo

To add your own text or an image to the sign-in page, send them to the support team at support@elium.com.

Mailing settings
Choose the logo and the sender name of the emails that the platform sends: use the platform logo and name, or choose others.
Questions
Can we change the font?
No. The font, the thumbnail size and the page layout are the same on every Elium platform. What you can change is listed on this page: the platform name, the colours, the logos, the favicon and the look of the emails.
Can we use our own domain name?
Yes, with the Enterprise plan. Your platform can use a subdomain of your own domain name, for example platformname.yourdomain.com. Contact the support team at support@elium.com: we will send you the details your IT team needs.
