Add your logo

1. Go to Status Page settings from the left menu.
2. Open the Design tab.

4. Add both light and dark versions of your logo (PNG, JPG, or SVG recommended).

Tip: Use transparent backgrounds (PNG) for best results across themes.

Add a favicon

1. In the Design tab, scroll to Favicon.
2. Click Upload and choose a square image (32×32 or 64×64 pixels recommended).
3. Your favicon will appear in the browser tab next to your page title.

Customize layout and theme

• Theme – Choose between light, dark, or system default.
• Layout – Select a 1, 2, or 3 column layout for your monitors.

Advanced branding options

In the Advanced section of the Design tab, you can fine-tune your branding:

• Colors – Set primary and secondary colors, with separate options for dark mode.
• Header style – Choose between Original or Bold header designs.
• Reset to default – Restore original color settings if needed.

Use a custom domain
