[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Customizing Staff Side logo

Thu Oct 31 10:37:04 EDT 2019

We are looking for help as to where to place our logo file for use on the Staff page. We followed the directions below, but our logo is not being found. We are able to use the logo on the Public page and are running ArchivesSpace version 2.6.

There appears to be a typo in the following page http://archivesspace.github.io/archivesspace/user/theming-archivesspace/#Making-small-changes:

The Staff Side logo will need a small plugin file and cannot be set in your config.rb file. This needs to be changed in the plugins/local/frontend/views/site/_branding.html.erb file. You'll most likely need to create one or more of the directories. Then create that _branding.html.erb file and paste in the following code:

<div class="container-fluid navbar-branding">
  <%= image_tag "archivesspace/archivesspace.small.png", :class=>"img-responsive" %>
</div>

Change the "archivesspace/archivesspace.small.png" to the path to your image /assets/images/logo.png and place your login the plugins/local/frontend/assets/images/ directory. You'll most likely need to create one or more of the directories.

Note: the original page had "...place your login the..." which I assume that to mean "...place your logo in the...".

We put the logo in the following location:

/apps/archivesspace/plugins/local/frontend/assets/images/Mitre_Corp_Logo_small.png

Created the following file:

[archspc at archspcdev1 site]$ pwd
/apps/archivesspace/plugins/local/frontend/views/site
[archspc at archspcdev1 site]$ more _branding.html.erb
<div class="container-fluid navbar-branding">
  <%= image_tag "archivesspace/Mitre_Corp_Logo_small.png", :class=>"img-responsive" %>
</div>
[archspc at archspcdev1 site]$

This appears to be incorrect as when bringing up the Staff page no logo is displayed, but do see what appears to be a place holder on the page. Information from the log file /apps/archivesspace/logs/archivesspace.out:

Please advise where we may have placed our logo file, file formats supported for logos, or other directories are needed. Also, can the path used in the _branding.html.erb file be fully qualified so that we make sure we are getting the file from where we expect?

Thank you!
