Customizing Primo’s Classic User Interface
This page is specific to Primo's classic UI. For customization information that is specific to the new Primo UI and Primo VE, see the following documents, respectively:
You can customize Primo's classic user interface (UI) by changing the formatting details of the view, the text, and the graphics. In addition, you can create customized HTML pages to be used with Primo.
Although many of the Primo Interface elements can be modified using the Primo Back Office, the following elements require changes to files on the server:
-
Colors, fonts, and layout of the UI (see Customizing the Default CSS File - Classic UI Only)
-
Text labels that appear in the UI (see Customizing Labels)
-
Image files used to display icons and buttons on the UI (see Customizing Icons for the Classic UI)
-
Static HTML files used to provide additional information on various pages of Primo's UI, such as the Front End home page and the Brief Results and Full Display pages (see Customizing Static HTML Files)
In some cases, it is necessary to modify system files in order to customize them. To prevent these modifications from being lost during a SP or hot fix update, keep a backup of customized files. After the update, you may need to reapply your changes.
