Branding your online office

  • replace the default favicon and logos with your own logo,
  • change the information displayed in the About this program window,
  • hide or show links to external resources, such as the Feedback and Support form, the Help Center, etc.

Branding settings can be applied to all portals or to the current portal only.

The image sizes must strictly correspond to the sizes specified next to each logo.
