How Do I Brand My GoSignMeUp System? Headers/Footers/Logos
Adding Custom Graphics and Colors to your GoSignMeUp Online Course Registration System.
1. Go to the System Configurations in the Administrative Menu
The System Configurations are in the System Config. dropdown on the Administrative Menu.
2. Click on "Header/Footer/Logos/Phone Number/Waiting list"
This is in the "Public Management" Section of the System Configuration.
3. Put in the correct name of your organization, address and phone number
1. Put your Organization's Name here - This will be displayed throughout the system (transcripts, certificates, etc.) If you are are using a header graphic image, you can mark the "Don't display in public header" box, otherwise it will print this name across the top of the public page.
2. Insert your organization's address and phone number here
3. This is an optional text field that can be used for additional information. It appears at the bottom of the public home page. It will be in black 12pt Times text, but will accept HTML as well.
4. Insert Logos
Logos that you would like to have on your Sign-In Sheets, Certificates and on the Administrative Home Page can be uploaded by pressing the "Choose File" Buttons. The recommended size is 120 x 120 and .jpg format - the same logo can be used in all three of these areas.
5. Upload the Header Graphic Image(s)
The suggested header graphic image is approximately 1000 x 150, although this depends on header placement, background image, and other factors. If you would like your header graphic to be left justified, insert it in the "Public Logo Image" area - (Number 1). If you would like your header graphic to be centered, insert it in the "Website Header Image" area - (Number 2).
Number 3 can be used if you would like your header graphic to act as a button and can be linked to the website address that is put in this field. Many people choose to have this link to their organization's home page.
If you would like to insert a small graphic that is repeated to create a background image, you can insert it in the "Website Header Background Graphic" area - (Number 4). The size of this graphic will vary depending on the look you are trying to achieve.
6. Location of HTMLDOC program and phone number
1. This the file where the HTMLDOC is located (usually this will be filled in by Mediablend)
2. Please insert the phone number you would like displayed to the public throughout the system.
7. Button Graphics
All of the buttons in the GoSignMeUp System can be replaced with customized graphics. Our graphic design team can assist you in creating buttons with the look, feel and terminology that is appropriate for you. If you would like the "register" button to say "add this to my cart" or have a graphic image of a shopping cart, then we can assist you with that. Sometimes "Sign Up" or "Check Out" is more appropriate than "Enroll." these images can be in .jpg or .gif format.
8. "My Account" and Calendar Graphic
1. The Public Log In Text is the what the public sees on the Public Home Page when they want to log in to their account. Usually "My Account" is used, but sometimes "Student Login" or another phrase is preferred.
2. Both the Credit Requirement Link and the Sign In Sheet PDF areas are for specific custom program pieces and do not need to be filled in.
3. This is where the Header Graphic for the Calendar is uploaded. This is usually the same graphic as the Public Home Page.
9. Waiting List Message, Member Image, Course PDF, and Reminder Image
1. This is what the pop-up warning will say if a student registers for a class and is placed on the waiting list.
2. If you would like an image on the front page promoting "membership", it can be uploaded here
3. Sometimes a manual confirmation is needed in PDF format. The text can be edited here.
4. If you would like an image in your Reminder E-mails, this is where it can be uploaded.
10. Supervisor Login, Room Management, Browser Compatibility and Extra Text
There are links on the public side that can be removed if they are not needed. You can remove the 1. Supervisor Login Area the 2. Room Management Link and 3. Browser Compatibility Information.
4. Extra Text (for instructions, contact information, etc.) can be added right above the "Copyright" line at the bottom of the Public Home Page. HTML can be used to achieve the look and feel you desire.
5. Be sure to press "Update" to save your changes.
