Visual theme & branding

You can make TSync match your brand — its main colour, accent colours, corner roundness and font — from one screen, with a live preview. Your choices apply across the whole admin area.

Open it

Go to Setup → Configuration Center → Theme & Branding (/admin/tsync_theme_manager).

Change your colours

  • Brand colour — the main colour for buttons, links and highlights.
  • Success / Warning / Danger — the accent colours for confirmations, warnings and delete actions.

Click a colour, pick a new one, and watch the preview on the right update instantly. Nothing is saved until you click Save theme.

Roundness and font

  • Corner radius — how rounded buttons and cards look (drag the slider).
  • Font — the typeface used across the interface.

You can colour the left sidebar to match your brand from here too — a background, and optionally a text and accent colour. Leave them empty for the automatic look (the default light sidebar).

  • Contrast is handled for you. Pick a dark background and TSync keeps the menu text light and readable; pick a light one and it switches the text dark. Hover and the active item stay legible either way, and a white logo is used on a dark sidebar — so you never end up with unreadable dark-on-dark menus.
  • One setting, both menus. The same colours drive both the main sidebar and the Configuration Center hub menu, so your branding is consistent everywhere — no more a readable sidebar but a dark-on-dark hub.

Night mode

TSync can show the whole admin in a dark appearance. On this same screen there's a Night mode setting, chosen per company:

  • Off — everyone sees the normal light theme (this is the default).
  • Per user — a Sun/Moon button appears in the top bar, and each person switches the whole admin between light and dark for themselves.

Each person's choice is remembered per browser, so it's personal to that user and that device. The very first time someone opens TSync, it follows their computer's own light/dark preference.

On a multi-company install this is per company — one company can turn night mode on while another stays light.

If you asked your computer to reduce motion, TSync listens

Every operating system has a reduce motion setting, used by people who get dizzy, nauseous or a migraine from movement on screen. From v11.1.4 the admin interface honours it: panels, drawers, menus and hovers stop animating and simply appear.

You do not switch this on in TSync. It follows the setting you already made in Windows, macOS, iOS, Android or your browser, and it applies to every admin page, not only the modern ones.

Movement driven by JavaScript is not covered yet — a small number of animations are written in code rather than in the stylesheet, and those still run. We would rather say so than let you discover it.

This is not the same thing as night mode. The admin theme never follows your operating system's light/dark preference — you choose it here — but reduce motion is a genuine accessibility request and is obeyed.

Logo & favicon

This screen also has a Logo & favicon card with three uploads — each with a preview and a Remove button:

  • Logo — your company logo.
  • Logo for the dark sidebar — shown when the sidebar is dark, so the logo stays visible.
  • Favicon — the little icon in the browser tab.

These are stored per company, so two companies sharing one install can each carry their own logo and favicon. If a company doesn't set its own, TSync falls back to the global logo and favicon.

There's also an optional Favicon (dark theme) upload on Setup → Settings → General, next to the normal favicon — a light/white icon that browsers show when the visitor's device is in dark mode. If you don't set one, the normal favicon is used. It complements the Night mode theme above.

Your branding survives an upgrade

Your company name, logo and favicon are yours — upgrading TSync never replaces them. If an install has no branding of its own, TSync applies its own default brand, but the moment you set your own it is kept from then on, through every future upgrade.

If an earlier upgrade did overwrite your favicon or company name, set them once more (Setup → Settings → General, or the Logo & favicon card above). They will stay put from now on.

Further down the same page is Document header & footer (letterhead) — a branded band that prints on the PDFs your customers receive, and on e-mails.

Nothing changes until you switch it on. You fill in a header and/or a footer block, then tick the document types it applies to under Apply to: contracts, invoices, estimates, proposals, credit notes, e-mails and e-mail templates. All of them start unticked, so an install that never opens this section keeps exactly the documents it had.

Filling it in

  • Header HTML / Footer HTML — the content of each band. If you would rather not start from an empty box, press Brand-band starter and edit what it puts there.
  • Header height / Footer height (mm) — how much room the band reserves on the page. Too small and the band overlaps the document body; the live preview beside the fields shows the result while you type.
  • Header on / Footer on — every page or first page only.

Company fields, written once

Under Company fields you enter the details the bands print: director, registration code, website, shop website, bank, BIC/SWIFT and the IBAN for MDL, USD and EUR. In the header and footer HTML you refer to them as tokens — {company_iban_mdl}, {company_bank}, {company_reg_code} and the rest — so changing a bank account later means editing one field here, not every template you have ever made.

Those same tokens also work in the body of a contract, and the contract editor lists them in its merge-field panel under Company (document header) so you can click one in rather than typing it. A token that means one thing in the header means the same thing in the body.

If a {...} token ever prints literally in a finished PDF, the field behind it is empty or the token is not one of the registered ones — check the spelling against the merge-field panel.

Everything here is saved per company: with multi-company on, the letterhead you save while inside a company belongs to that company.

Advanced CSS

For power users, an Advanced CSS box lets you add a little extra custom styling on top of your theme. It's for small, safe touch-ups; TSync cleans and bounds what you enter (no unsafe content, no external references) and applies it last, so a genuine one-off tweak wins over the theme defaults.

This box replaces the old Theme Style customizer, which has now been retired and no longer ships. If you had custom CSS there, TSync moved it into Advanced CSS for you when you upgraded — so your styling lives in one place.

Presets

Not sure where to start? Click a preset — TSync default, Indigo, Emerald, Slate or Rose — to apply a ready-made palette, then fine-tune from there.

Save, or start over

  • Save theme applies your choices across the admin.
  • Reset to defaults returns everything to the standard TSync look.

Tip: keep the brand colour readable — buttons show white text on your colour, so very light colours can be hard to read. The preview shows you exactly how it looks before you save.

Your customers' portal

Your customers log in to their own portal to see their invoices, projects, contracts and support tickets. It carries your company branding, and TSync keeps it on the current design.

If your portal was still being drawn by the retired design from before the platform was modernised, upgrading moves it to the current one automatically — there is nothing to click. Your previous setting is stored, so the change can be undone at any time. A portal you have deliberately customised yourself is never touched; only that one retired design is replaced.

This is a security fix, not a cosmetic one. Five pages of the retired design — profile, contacts, saved payment card, files and the project files list — let an item be deleted by simply following a link, without the safeguards the rest of TSync uses. Moving to the current design removes them.

The current design has every page the retired one had, so nothing your customers use disappears.

If the design folder ever goes missing, TSync now falls back to the design that ships with the product and records that it did so. Previously the entire customer portal was replaced by an error page while your administration area looked perfectly healthy — which meant everything seemed fine to you while nothing worked for your customers.

Worth doing once after an upgrade: open your own customer portal — the login page is enough. You should see the current design with your branding.
