Hi,
I'd like to change the look/style of foreman. Specifically I'd like to add
a background image to the login screen, similair to how RedHat have done
for there branded foreman 'Openstack Installer'.
<https://access.redhat.com/sites/default/files/images/openstack_login.png>
Is there a formal way to do this, or is it a case of hacking the rails app?
I had a look in /usr/share/foreman/app/views/users/login.html.erb
There is a tag
<div class="col-sm-12">
<div id="brand">
<%= image_tag("foreman_white.png") %>
</div><!–/#brand–>
</div>
This is where the foreman logo is inserted.
Any thoughts on how to change this?
Hi Dave,
You can create a Foreman plugin for this, which would replace the
users/login page using deface (not sure if it's possible to replace assets
through plugins, but I think not).
Here's the wiki with some info:
http://projects.theforeman.org/projects/foreman/wiki/How_to_Create_a_Plugin
And some examples for you to look at:
http://projects.theforeman.org/projects/foreman/wiki/List_of_Plugins
Best,

Daniel you were right about the assets - they cannot be overridden in
plugins, but the code is not so far from enabling it.
I did some research on the matter, the key is changing the loading order of
the plugins and core inside the main application class:
class Application < Rails::Application
config.railties_order = config.themes + [:main_app, :all] if
> config.respond_to? :themes
Once it's done - you can override any file, including the assets - it will
give the plugin full control over the visual aspect.
Just put your file under the assets folder of your plugin.

Update:
I have created a plugin that attempts to create a theme for foreman without
making changes to the core objects.
It kind of works (attached a screenshot), you can find the sources here:
https://github.com/ShimShtein/foreman_themify let me know if it helps.
