Managing Themes

Overview


The Theme Library in Encodify allows administrators to centrally manage and apply visual themes across the platform. A theme defines the visual identity of the user interface, including colours, logos, and styling elements. Using the Theme Library, you can create and maintain a collection of branded themes that reflect your organisation or specific user groups, ensuring a consistent look and feel across different teams, departments, or client environments.

Themes from the library can be applied at the site or user level, enabling enterprise-level personalisation while maintaining brand integrity.

Note: Some elements of Encodify’s interface, such as the Encodify logo in footers and app configuration areas, remain visible to preserve product identity.

Default Themes


Each site in Encodify is automatically assigned a default Encodify theme, providing a consistent visual foundation out of the box. This theme includes standard colours, branding elements, and layout settings designed to reflect the Encodify identity.

Administrators can view and compare these settings to guide the creation of new custom themes or to understand the baseline appearance applied when no other theme is assigned.
