Logo
INTERDUBS can use an image file as your logo in all client pages, emails etc.
You can use any image file that is already uploaded to INTERDUBS as the logo file.
There is not a special location for files that will be used as a logo.
Once you elected the image as a logo (see below) you no longer need the file INTERDUBS.
Please follow the outlined here to update your logo.
Have a look at Web_design for other client page customization or simply get in touch.
Changing your logo file
To update your logo file you can follow the following steps:
Enable logo
In order to use a logo file you need to enable it first in the configuration.
You can do this for a segment (usually this is already enabled) a look or a login:
Click on the (+) in front of the enable logo file configuration (located right after the color boxes) Enable the check box for enable logo file Update segment, look or login configuration
You are now able to assign a file as the logo to your segment, this look or logo.
Upload Image file
Upload the image file of your logo into any folder you like.
Any resolution will work. You have the choice to either use the original resolution or to let INTERDUBS resize the logo for you to match the requirements of your design.
Files can be in the PNG, JPEG or GIF formats. Alpha channels (transparancy) works best with PNG files.
Edit
In the files listing click on the
edit file
link for the image that you just uploaded.
In the drag and drop uploaders you can also click on the image itself after the upload is complete.
Copy Image to be used as logo
On the edit file screen click on the:
copy this image to be used as a logo screen.
Choose
You will find your segment, looks or logins that have the the setting for enable logo file set on this screen.
Select one of them to have the logo copied and used by the system. If a logo has already been set then the destination
uses this icon:
Should no logo be defined yet for this destination then this is been indicated via 
Done
The logo will now be used on all pages where it is referenced.
Logo resize
INTERDUBS can scale the logo file you upload to fit your web design.
INTERDUBS will automatically rescale the image file to the requested size.
In all circumstances will the original aspect ratio of the logo be maintained.
The keyword Logo resize: use html, source or XxY defines how a logo will be sized when it gets displayed on client pages.
source
When source is entered in the Logo resize.... configuration then the logo will be rendered at the original resolution of the uploaded image file.
use html
use html instructs INTERDUBS to use the size definition out of the HTML template:
resized into box
The keyword IDXHTML_BOXLOGO999x999_ will call a resized logo that will fit in a box of 999 by 999 pixels. Logos are not squeezed. They aspect ratio will be kept in touch.
original size
The keyworkd IDXHTML_LOGO will use the logo in its original resolution.
X by Y size
INTERDUBS also accepts setting the width and height by setting the values in the format
WIDTHxHEIGHT
There can not be spaces etc in this size dimension. To resize a logo to fit into a box of 200 pixels width and 100 pixels height you would set this value to 200x100.
optional code
If looks still should work if there is no logo file set, then you can make rendering the line optional: All HTML in a line between IDXIFlogo_ and IDXENDIF will only be rendered in the client interface if a logo has been defined.
logo link
If the IDXIFlogo_ and IDXENDIF combination exists then the logo can link to a URL of your choice. See logo link for details.
