Open the portal/default/mint/ directory
Copy the layout directory
Paste the directory into portal/default/local/
Open the newly pasted layout directory
You'll see 3 files in the layout directory:
header-branding.vm: This is the file you need for changing the logo
html-head-links.vm: Sets the HTML link tags - this is really important as it points to the CSS file
html-head-title.vm: Sets the title of the web page - this can be useful if you need some fixed text in the tile
Let's change the header branding in header-branding.vm:
Original
Change
<div class="grid_16 branding">
<h1 id="branding"><a href="$portalPath/home">The Mint</a></h1>
<div class="subtitle">Linked Authority Control Service</div>
</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
<div class="grid_16 branding">
<h1 id="branding">
<a href="$portalPath/home">
<img src="http://www.openclipart.org/image/800px/svg_to_png/1316090534.png" height="150"/>
Uni X - Mint</a></h1>
<div class="subtitle">We know that you know that we know</div>
</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
Now we need to change our colour scheme to better match our new logo:
Open the portal/default/mint/ directory
Copy the css directory
Paste the directory into portal/default/local/
Open the newly pasted css directory
Change the file named mint.css to local.css
In order to use local.css we'll need to edit portal/default/local/layout/html-head-links.vm:
Original
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="$portalPath/css/mint.css" />
Change
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="$portalPath/css/local.css" />
Now that we're pointing to the correct CSS file, open portal/default/local/css/local.css and make some changes:
It's not pretty but the aesthetics are your job :)
