Appearance
Contents
Appearance controls the look and feel of Exprodo DB. It does this by allowing the creation of CSS to overwrite the default values. The user can also set the headings for the Host Page and for the Login page, as well as a banner to be displayed at the top of each page. The Headings (debug) setting will only be shown when the Show advanced appearance box is ticked.

Description |
|---|---|
Allows the administrator to change the look and feel of the system for all users. |
|
To specify Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) that you would like to be used by Exprodo DB. Anything specified here will override the default values, so that you can customise the look and feel. |
|
This sets several properties that control the look of Exprodo DB, see the table below for the headers that can be changed. |
|
To specify the same sort of content as used for Headings above, but allows alternative values when Exprodo DB is in debug mode. |
Skins
Administrators can choose the skins they want to us and can also define their own skin/theme. To create a new theme go to Search->Search and Search for: Theme.
Give the Theme a name, set the colours required for each of the elements and adjust the palette if required. Click Save and the theme will be available for selection in both the Global and User settings areas. Adjusting the pallette is a quick way to change the colour for all options that use it.
Export Themes: Will provide a download of the JSON that defines the theme.
Export CSS: Will provide a download of the CSS that defines the theme.
Test Theme: Works without saving and allows users to see changes straight away.
