Appearance
Theme presets, branding, fonts, custom CSS, server banners, the server sidebar and link previews.
Most of the look is under Stratum → Appearance. The theme's own settings (preset, accent colour, logo) are in the theme settings of the panel.
Theme and branding
Appearance → Theme & Branding sets the panel name, the logo and favicon, and the theme everyone sees. Stratum comes with presets such as Vercel, Midnight, Violet, Emerald, Sunset, Rose, Nord, Terminal, Glassy, Dracula, Solarized, Catppuccin, Gruvbox, Neon, Paper and Forest, each in dark and light. Custom takes your own colours.
- Fonts: pick a font from the list or upload your own. It is used on the sign-in page too.
- Custom CSS: added last on every page, so it wins over the theme.
Themes for users
Turn on Let users pick their own theme in the theme settings. Every account then gets:
- Themes: pick any preset, dark or light.
- Theme Studio: build a theme with your own colours and save it.
Users also get Hotkeys in their account (keyboard shortcuts for the console and the panel).
Server banners
Appearance → Server banners gives every egg a picture at the top of its server cards and pages. Upload an image per egg, or leave the default.
Server sidebar
Appearance → Server sidebar changes the server navigation: order, groups, labels and which entries show. Pages you switched off under Features are hidden on their own.
Account page
Appearance → Account page decides which parts of the account area show (for example SSH keys) and locks fields users may not change, such as the email address.
SEO and link previews
Appearance → SEO & link previews sets the description, the Open Graph and Twitter cards, the favicon and the canonical URL. Links to your panel posted on Discord get a rich card, optionally with buttons.
Suggestions
Set the preset and accent first, then check the sign-in page in a private window. Custom CSS is easier to keep small when the preset is already close to what you want.
