+ Changing Colors and Images + To change or adjust the image on the main screen edit /openils/var/web/xul/index.xhtml.

Other display aspects can also be adjusted using these cascading style sheets. +
+
+ Changing Labels and Messages + You can customize labels in the staff client by editing the corresponding DTD files. The staff client uses the same lang.dtd used by the OPAC. This file is located in /openils/var/web/opac/locale/[your locale]. Other labels are controlled by the staff client specific lang.dtd file in /openils/var/web/xul/client version]/server/locale/[your locale]/. +

+ Changing the Search Skin + There are a few ways to change the custom skin for OPAC searching in staff client. + + Changing the Search Skin on Server - Overriding Local Settings + To change the opac search skins used by the staff client create a file named custom.js and place it in the + /openils/var/web/xul/[staff client version]/server/skin/ directory.
