The timezone should be set to where ever your organisation's head office or headquarters is located.

Delete Confirmation

The Delete Confirmation setting is turned on by default. It is designed to stop accidental deletion of resources through out your Our Cat Herder portal. We highly recommend you keep the delete confirmation setting turned on.

When the Delete Confirmation is turned on (default behaviour) you will see a message similar to the below screenshot, asking you to type "DELETE" before you can proceed.

If you turn the Delete Confirmation off then the same modal will appear similar to the below screenshot.

It will download all the data on your portal in common formats such as PDF and CSV or the format of the original file uploaded.

Start Page Image

On your Start Page you may have noticed an image on the middle left, which by default is a green ball of wool.

To customise the Start Page Image navigate to 'Settings' and click the Upload Logo button. You will be directed to a page where you will need to choose an image from your device for upload.

Click the grey "Choose File" button. The image you choose will now show in the small window in the middle of the screen.

If you click and hold the image you can also position it as you require.

These documents have a header area you can customise. Typically you might set it to your organisation's logo or document header.

The Document Header will appear on the following PDFs:
