Description Rafael Chaves CLA 2014-07-07 19:08:14 EDT
It seems Orion has various opportunities for branding. Please provide a document showing them. See bug 410679 for some pointers. Also the links here:

*** Bug 468009 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 2 Rafael Chaves CLA 2015-05-25 11:00:25 EDT
Whereas this bug talks specifically about a document, it is possible some things need to changed in Orion itself to enable adopters to accomplish branding in a scalable/repeatable way. 

Please see bug 468009 comment 0 for examples of what adopter may need to accomplish w.r.t. branding.
Comment 3 Carolyn MacLeod CLA 2015-05-25 11:01:45 EDT
Please see dup (bug 468009) for more info, and to see that rebranding doc would be useful.

Also, whatever solution is used for bug 403261 (after it is fixed) belongs in the rebranding doc too.
Comment 4 Rafael Chaves CLA 2015-05-27 19:53:41 EDT
As suggested by Carolyn, I created a wiki page to start collecting tips on branding:

Comment 5 Punyashloka Biswal CLA 2015-06-05 15:33:43 EDT
The linked wiki page lists out branding needs but doesn't contain any solutions. In particular, the most recent master version (gba75330) hardcodes:
* the landing page location (which includes a Twitter feed)
* the list of OAuth providers (Google and Github)

Yes, there are many gaps here. Contributions to Orion to help make all of these points more flexible would be most welcome. I suggest opening individual bugs for specific issues, and if you are able to work on a fix that would be great. Sometimes a quick and dirty solution with a server configuration setting can be done to help here without too much effort.

A wiki was created.  We are unlikely to do any branding work in the near future.
