This article will explain how to change the application theme, the login page appearance, the logo, and the favicon. You can also watch our video that covers this topic.
Theme #
Tailor the visual elements of the application to meet your requirements. Adjust the application theme, login page appearance, logo, favicon, text, and language. On this page, you can customize the application theme. By default, the GetCertified default theme is applied, but you can create new themes according to your needs and branding.
On this tab, you can:
- View the list of already created themes. The Default column shows which theme is set as the default theme. The Active column displays themes marked as active. The System column identifies system themes that are always present in the application and cannot be deleted.
- Create a new theme.
- Apply one of the already created themes.
- Edit an existing theme.
- Delete a theme.
To create a new theme:
- Enter the Name of a new theme.
- Select the Set as default option if you want the currently selected theme to become the default theme applied when users log in to the application. Note that only one theme can be set as default at a time. If another theme was previously set as default, enabling this option on another theme will turn off the default setting on the previous theme.
- To set a theme as the default, it must also be marked as Active.
- Set the theme as Active, and it will appear in the list of themes on the user’s profile, allowing them to choose it for their profile. The default theme is applied if no other theme is selected in the user’s profile. If the theme is not set as Active, it will not be displayed on the user’s profile.

- Select between detailed 3D icons, or simple flat icons.
