Branding

Logo, accent colour, and workspace theme.

This guide is the detailed Campsite help article for this topic. It is written for UK employers and people teams using a branded organisation workspace such as {org}.camp-site.co.uk.

Where to manage branding

Navigate to Admin → Settings → Branding (/admin/settings) to access all branding options.

Upload your organisation's logo from the Branding section. Your logo appears in:

  • The sidebar of the main web app
  • Outgoing transactional emails (invitations, password resets, notifications)
  • The mobile app header

For best results, upload a logo with a transparent background in PNG or SVG format. The logo is displayed at a consistent size across surfaces, so avoid logos with very wide or very tall proportions.

Accent colour

Choose an accent colour preset that best represents your brand. The accent colour is applied across:

  • Primary action buttons across the workspace
  • Active navigation highlights in the sidebar and top bar
  • Active hub tabs and segmented scope controls (for example Active / Archived)
  • Unread notification badge colours
  • Profile tab highlights
  • Public careers pages and candidate portal (when applicants apply to your roles)

CampSite offers four accent presets:

Preset keyDescription
CampfireWarm neutral default
OceanBold professional blue
ForestFresh green
VioletRich purple

Choose an accent colour that maintains sufficient contrast against both light and dark backgrounds. Your staff can choose their own light or dark mode preference, so your accent colour needs to look sharp in both.

Dense data tables, page headings, and metric values stay on a neutral ink palette for readability. Your accent shows on actions and navigation, not on every label.

Light and dark mode

Staff choose their own light or dark mode preference from their personal settings. This is not something you set org-wide. Your accent colour applies in both modes, so the same branded experience carries through regardless of which mode each staff member prefers.

Org-branded emails

All transactional emails sent from your Campsite workspace, including staff invitation emails, password reset links, rota notifications, and broadcast delivery emails, are rendered with your logo and branding automatically. There is no separate email template configuration required.

Transactional emails are sent on your behalf by Campsite's email delivery system. You do not need to set up or manage an email server. Branding is applied automatically as soon as you upload your logo and choose a preset.

Saving your branding

After uploading your logo or selecting an accent preset, click Save to apply your changes. Updates take effect immediately. You may need to refresh the page to see the new accent colour reflected in the sidebar and primary buttons.

Before you contact support

  1. Confirm you are signed in on the correct organisation URL ({org}.camp-site.co.uk).
  2. Refresh after a recent role or permission change.
  3. Check whether a colleague with the same role can see the same controls.
  4. Capture the page URL and any error text if you still need help.
