Add a custom logo on the top of the page

[SDich]

Good day,

Can you please tell me if there is a way I can use to add a custom logo on the top of the main page and keep that logo there when surfing from a page to another? What kind of images are allowed to be used (jpg, png,....)?

Thank you.

Check out the info on the Configuration guides under "Custom Navbar Logo"

http://guides.dataverse.org/en/latest/installation/config.html#custom-navbar-logo

We have changed our local instance of dataverse w/ our logo "LibraData"

Hello, Sidi.

The customization for your Dataverse installation that you are asking for is documented in our Branding Your Installation section of the Installation Guide.

http://guides.dataverse.org/en/4.8.6/installation/config.html#branding-your-installation

In that section, it outlines all the various approaches you can take to add a custom look and feel to the UI. You can either use the Custom Navbar Logo approach (see the Harvard Dataverse installation as an example) or the Custom Header approach (see the University of Manitoba as an example).

Each of these approaches support various image file types, but the navbar logo approach recommends to limit the file size to fit in the existing navbar space.

If you have any other specific questions about customization, let me know, I will be glad to help.

Good luck!
