Edit Custom Header

The Edit Custom Header page is a quick way to start customizing the appearance of your connectDaily public calendar to match your website. This is helpful because it bypasses the need for any knowledge of HTML. Remember, the header is only visible by those not logged into the calendar.

Header Layout – click the button that illustrates the layout you prefer for your header.

Organization Name – this is the name of your organization.

Image Name or URL – this is the file name or URL of the image you wish to use in your header. (file name example: mylogo.jpg – URL example: http://www.mywebsite.com/images/mylogo.jpg) Using the Browse button, select your image file from your computer’s directory.

Alt Text for Image – this is an alternative text description for your image to be displayed by the browser when the image is not visible. This is essential for text-only browsers. The Alt text will most likely be the name of your organization or will offer information about your organization. (Alt example: Vacation Condo Scheduling)

When a User Clicks on the Logo or Organization Name, Take Them to This URL – enter the URL of the website you want associated with your logo or organization’s name.

Links to Put in Header – default links are Month View Calendar, Year View and Login. These are links to the various calendar views available in connectDaily. You can select any of the Available links by double clicking on the link name and moving it to the Selected Items box. The links in the Selected Items box can be sorted into the order you would like them to appear in your header. Highlight a specific link, then using the up and down arrows located on the right-hand side of the Selected Items box, move the link up and down until it is in the appropriate position.

Save your changes.

Notes for those with an understanding of HTML:

You can make further custom changes to your header by downloading and editing your header file. Right click, on the userHeader.html link, located at the bottom of the Create Calendar Header screen and select ‘save as’. Note: you will want to maintain and keep the userHeader file name.

Once you have modified and saved your header, it can be uploaded using the Transfer File screen to the /custom/en file.
