Administrators can create custom icons with links to resources that Fotoware users can click on to access. Button visibility can be customized so they're even available for guests.

Note

Custom links are available in both the main Fotoware interface and the Fotoware Pro interface

 

 

Where is this configured?

  1. Go to Tools (cogwheel icon) > Site Configuration > Appearance > Branding.
  2. Turn on the Custom titlebar buttons toggle.



     
  3. Select Add button to create a custom button with a link:

  4. Make the required changes: 
  • Icon: Select an icon from the dropdown list.
  • Tooltip: Enter the explanatory text that appears when users hover over the icon in the Fotoware user interface.
  • Available for Guest: Turn this toggle on to make the custom link visible to unauthenticated visitors to the site (guests)
  • Url: Enter the URL that opens when a user selects the icon.
    Tip:  You can use all tags described in User tags in Fotoware in the URL. These will be replaced for logged-in users.
