  • Updated

The Parent Portal Design page gives you the ability to customize the design of the Parent Portal, including the colors and your school's logo, so it matches the branding of your school. 

Overview of the Parent Portal Design page

On the Parent Portal Design page, under Settings > Portal > Parent Portal Design, you have access to the following options:

  • Background Color: Sets the color of the page background, which displays along either side of the page and along the bottom of the log-in screen. Enter the color as an HTML color code.
  • Dark Accent Color: Sets the color of section and subsection headers on any online forms, as well as the line underneath your school logo in the Parent Portal. Enter the color as an HTML color code.
  • Light Accent Color: Currently retired feature.
  • Border Accent Color: Currently retired feature.
  • Custom CSS: If you want to use CSS to further customize the look and feel of the Parent Portal, input your custom CSS into this box. Please test any changes by visiting the Parent Portal. If you see something unexpected happening, remove any recent custom CSS. To return your portal to the default state, remove all custom CSS.
  • Logo: Allows you to upload a school logo, which will display at the top of forms and all areas of the Parent Portal. See the "Recommended logo dimensions" section below for recommended logo dimensions.
  • Logo Alignment: Sets the alignment of your logo (i.e., left-, center-, or right-aligned) if it is not a full-length banner.
  • Top/Bottom Logo Padding: When set to 'Yes', this option will add a 20px padding to the top and bottom of your school logo.

Remember to click Save after making any changes!
