Gleanin themes allow you to create image templates with ease. These themes come with a variety of predefined colour choices, fonts and elements and giving you the flexibility to customize and edit them according to your preferences.
One of the great benefits is the ability to have multiple themes within a single campaign. This is particularly useful if you want to offer your stakeholders a wide range of image choices for their social sharing needs. With multiple themes, you can cater to different preferences, making the sharing experience more personalised and engaging.
In addition to customizing colours and elements on the template, Gleanin also allows PRO subscribers to upload their own fonts.
Editing theme
When you create your campaign you can choose one of the templates that come with predefined colours, fonts and backgrounds or clone an existing one from your previous campaign.
Whichever template you choose - new or cloned - you are able to customise it further and the options will differ based on the campaign type selected (Speakers, Speakers & sessions, Exhibitors and Attendees).
To edit the theme from the campaign dashboard:
- Click on the Theme tab
- Click on the Pencil icon
- Select Theme to edit styling options as well as hide/unhide elements across all templates.
If you have that already set up, you can choose the Individual image template to tailor the layout of individual templates.
Please make sure that you click on Save to preserve any changes made as we do not have an auto-save function.
