Customizing a Candidate Portal stylesheet

Sage People enables you to use one or more cascading stylesheets (css) to customize the appearance of Candidate Portals. You can specify:

  • A default css for all Candidate Portals you operate as a link on the Recruit Configuration page.
  • A custom css for each Candidate Portal.
  • Sage People supplies a template stylesheet as a starting point for further customization - you typically want to apply branding compatible with your organization. If you are modifying a stylesheet for use by a Sage People customer, be aware that the responsibility for the style applied to any associated Candidate Portal is the responsibility of the customer.

You can:

  • Upload the stylesheet to Static Resources in your org,

    When uploaded:

    1. In the list of Static Resources, select the stylesheet Name.

    2. On the Static Resource Detail page, select View File.

    3. Copy the stylesheet URL displayed in your browser address bar and paste the URL into Stylesheet.

Before you start:

  • You must be familiar with the css stylesheet language.
  • The sample cascading stylesheet:

    • Includes a representative set of elements that can be styled - it is not comprehensive. Use the stylesheet as a starting point to build a complete definition of the style you want to apply.
    • Includes a generic color set. Make sure that all color declarations are modified to match your requirements.
