Theming the login page

Abstract. In this article, you can learn how to create a customized theme for the default login page for your appsuite installation and also how to configure different ones for different hostnames. It only explains where and how to configure and apply the modifications but not the basics of App Suite theming.

style.less

To apply a theme to the login page you just add the relevant snippets to the style.less file like for a normal theme and include the logos and artifacts in the theme directory.

Here are some examples of CSS selectors which can be addressed on the login page:

#io-ox-login-username
#io-ox-login-screen .btn-primary
#io-ox-login-screen .btn-primary:hover
#io-ox-login-header-prefix
#io-ox-login-header-label
#io-ox-login-container
.wallpaper
body.down #io-ox-login-container .alert.alert-info
.language-delimiter
#io-ox-copyright


as-config.yml

To actually apply the above definition the theme needs to be specified in the file /opt/open-xchange/etc/as-config.yml:

signinTheme: MYTHEME


As as-config.yml can have different configuration based on different hostnames a multi branded configuration can be applied as well.
