GUI Configuration

The outward appearance and look of ]project-open[ is controlled by several parameters.  These have nothing to do with the functionality, and are meant to be used by a business in order to put their "personal" stamp onto ]project-open[. ­

• CSS
• Logo
• Nav Bar
  

CSS

Cascading Style Sheets are used in order format HTML output for the dynamically produced pages of ]project-open[.  The default style sheet used throughout the system is controlled by the parameter SystemCSS below the "intranet-core" grouping of parameters.  The parameter consists of a file pathname to the style sheet.  Default set-up for the parameter is "/intranet/style/style.default.css"­  on Linux.  

We recommend to anyone wishing to modify the CSS that they do so by copying and pasting the original, and then modify according to suit their needs.  Add the newly modified C­SS to "intranet/style/" and then alter the paramter accordingly to point to the new CSS. ­ 

Logo

(Default System Logo found in the upper left hand corner of the page) 

To insert your company's graphic into ]project-open[, the parameter SystemLogo below the "intranet-core" grouping of parameters must be changed.  This parameter consists of a file pathname to the system logo.  Default is "intranet/images/projop-logo.gif".

To reflect your company logo, add the new image file to "intranet/images/" and then change the parameter to point to the new file.  The parameter SystemLogoLink is also useful, and it controls the URL that is associated with logo.  Default is "www.project-open.com".   Simply change the URL the parameter points to and then every mouse click with direct users there.

Nav Bar
