Appendix A: Portal 
Customization

Overview

With 

Portal Customization

, the UniFi Controller software 

allows complete branding of a portal implementation, 
allowing you to “white label” your wireless internet service 
as if you had developed it yourself. 
In order to provide the maximum flexibility in your 
branding effort, the UniFi Controller software provides 
total access to the portal directory on the system in which 
it is installed. 
This open architecture allows you to include unlimited 
content while keeping development simple through the 
use of plain .html (hand code or use any editor of your 
choice). Testing is simple and immediate by reloading 
changes from any browser.
