Branding

Post by DomDis »

The use your own logo in WingFTP needs attention.

I made a logo and use WingFTP to add my custom logo. It worked in some areas but not others

I want to be able to change the FAVICON too
I want any correspondences from WingFTP to use my logo - Weblinks up/download

So I created my own logo (copied the the file to my PC and edited it in pain.net) then I inserted it to WingFTP via the menu Server, Settings, General settings, Use customized logo.

I also created a FAVICON but I don't see where I can use that. Fortunately support told me which files (there were a few) to overwrite for the favicon.

I noticed that when I create a weblink or a request for files. WingFTP uses its own logo in the email. Some of my customers were confused and thought it was a link to SPAM or MALWARE. The email was from someone at my domain but it had another company's logo embedded.

Fortunately Support clued me into which file I had to change to fix this. This log is hard coded into several HTML files. I looked fro all the lines with logo_s in it.

Code: Select all

grep -i logo_s * 
They use

Code: Select all

 <a href="https://www.wftpserver.com/" target="_blank"><img src="images/logo_s.png" border="0"></a>
I modified every line that had this and inserted my own

Code: Select all

 <a href='https://MyServer.MyDomain.com/' target='_blank'><img src='https://MyServer.MyDomain.com/images/logo_s.png' border='0'></a>
I was hoping to use a variable that is set in Domains, settings, General settings, The Domain USL but I don't know what it is called or how to insert it into the code.

This seems to have worked BUTTTTT if I ever upgrade I'm sure I'll have to do it all again.

My request is to allow the use of custom logos (which WingFTP kind of already does this) but also allow for a favicon. Most importantly use that Logo every such as in email correspondences for weblinks or file request ...

The files I found that had this are

cd /wftpserver/webclient/
# grep -i logo_s *
downloadfolder.html
downloadpass.htm
uplink_update.html
uploadlink.html
weblink_update.html
I would have included some images but I don;t know how to insert them inline
