Brands Overview

Brands are the center of organization for the look and feel of the LMS. Brands allow Admins to customize how Users view and interact with the learning platform.

With Brands, administrators can update and design the website from a single location for generalized updates and then, make smaller, more exact changes to the Homepage, Login Pages, and Learner Portal.

Brands allow for content that is created to be shared across multiple areas and organizations, eliminating the need to create the same content multiple times. 

Can Courses be Visible Only in a Specific Brand?

"Brands" allows admins to create different looks for the delivery of content and is not intended as a way to separate or organize content. Making content visible only to certain users should primarily be managed in User Groups.

However, for ease of use, Courses can be configured to be visible to specific users. This can be accomplished in the Permissions tab of the Course editor. Toggle "Specific Brands" in Brand Visibility and select the appropriate Brands. 

Basic Setup

Go to Design > Click Brands > Click New

Essentials tab

In the Essentials tab, provide the Basic Information for this brand: Brand Name, Domain, if this Brand is Published, Languages and Language Selector, Payment Gateway, Email Settings, and Zoom Integration.

To exclude certain Users from being able to utilize the selected Payment Gateway select the corresponding User Group(s) in the Payment Gateways window. 

Site Details tab

In Site Details, configure settings focused on the look and feel of the brand such as Favicon, Video Cover Image, and Font.

Set if SSO Deeplinks are enabled and select the corresponding SSO app. 

Set if Three Color Design is enabled and set the corresponding colors. 

By default, a “Powered by Tovuti LMS” tag is included in the footer of the User Portal pages. Disable if necessary. 

Set any Subscriptions that a user is added to when logging into this Brand.

Home Page and User Portals tab

The Home Page and User Portal tabs include fields to further customize a user’s first interaction with the LMS.

Configure the settings in the remaining tabs: Site FAQ, Legal Information, and Social Media.

Default Settings tab

In the Default Settings tab, configure default images for various areas of the LMS (1). Additionally, upload default User images (2). These images are applied when custom images are not chosen.

If an image is uploaded that does not fit the suggested aspect ratio, the image is auto-cropped to fill the entire section.

The Default Avatar Image is used in the User Menu when the user has not uploaded their own image.

Upon finishing all the necessary settings, click Save.
