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.

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.
