# Set your community's branding

*Branding*

### What you’ll learn

- Set your logo, colours and community name
- See where each brand element appears
- Keep branding consistent across the portal

Your community's branding drives everything your members see. Set it once in the
platform console and the whole member portal — plus auth screens and public share
pages — reskins to your brand, with readable text and hover shades derived
automatically.

## Open your branding settings

1. Go to the **Platform Console** (the orange panel).
2. Select your community, then open the **Branding** tab.

## Set the essentials

1. Enter your **community name** — it appears throughout the portal and on emails.
2. Pick your **brand color**. The platform derives hover shades and auto-contrast text
   from it, so any color stays legible everywhere.
3. Upload your **logos** — a light-background version and a dark-background version.
   The right one is chosen automatically depending on where it sits.
4. Add your **hero image** and a short description for public surfaces.
5. Save.

## What updates automatically

- The member portal, sign-in screen, and public share pages all adopt the new brand
  the next time they load.
- Listings, reports, and emails carry the community brand alongside each agent's own
  photo and logo.

## Good to know

- Members layer their **own photo and logo** on top of the community brand — you set
  the frame, they personalize within it.
- Choosing a **light or dark portal theme** is a separate one-toggle setting on the
  same console.

## Troubleshooting

### My new logo looks wrong on a dark background

Make sure you uploaded **both** logo variants. A single dark-ink logo disappears on a
dark surface — the light (white) variant is what shows there.

### The brand color text is hard to read

You don't set text color by hand — the platform computes readable text on your brand
color automatically. If something looks off, try a brand color with a bit more contrast
and re-save.
