How to Customize Portals Management Page
Branding is essential to your VIDIZMO Portal as it significantly impacts your users' experience and strongly emphasizes your brand voice, theme, or tone. VIDIZMO provides the tools to customize various aspects of your Portal, such as your Portal thumbnail or header.
In addition, you can customize various aspects of your Portal's user interface (UI) using custom CSS. The UI elements each have a predefined CSS class that you can utilize when writing your CSS code for customizations.
You can customize the UI elements present on the 'All Portals' page using custom CSS. These UI elements have CSS classes that you can utilize to perform your customizations. You can perform modifications, such as hiding the buttons to leave, create, or delete a Portal. You can also use them to customize the look of the 'All Portals' page if you wish.
Note: Please note that the class availability depends on the type of VIDIZMO product you are using, whether you have the required permissions, and whether a certain feature is available in your product.
