Manager Experience: Branding Variables

Overview 

This article outlines brandable options for the Manager Experience. All Branding Variables can be modified in the Manage Template menu option on the Learner Experience interface. Similar to the Templates feature, these branding variables allow you to create a custom and unique Manager Experience view for your people leaders. 

Important Note

Only a System Admin can apply these branding variables & access Manage Templates. 

Achieving consistent and unified branding across your LMS Experiences:

The Manager Experience uses the branding controls available in the template themes which are available for configuration in the Learner Experience.

When we were initially determining which branding variables to use in the new Manager Experience, we aimed to align it as closely as possible to how themes are currently being used, however one aspect we had to make a difficult decision on which could impact some of our clients, was the background color for the widgets in the Overview Dashboard.

We ultimately decided to use white as a static color for these widgets, given the majority of our clients who are using Supervisor functionality today, would not need to make changes to their branding configuration.

To preserve the usage of the white dashboard tile text in your Learner Experience widgets, we suggest adjusting the value of this variable at the overall theme level and leveraging custom configurations for your Learner Experience widget. This way you can preserve the configuration you have in the Learner Experience while enabling a contrasting set of colors to appear in the Manager Experience.

We appreciate your flexibility and understanding with making these adjustments so that you can have a cohesive branded experience for all of your LMS users.
