Designing a Header

To enhance your brand identity, add your company logo and tagline in the header section running across the top of your board. Adding alt text to your logos will optimize your images for SEO and is also important for accessibility purposes. You can also add social media links in the header to allow your leads to share your board with others and reach a larger audience.

Before you begin:

• Width dimensions of a logo are dynamically calculated within Folloze.

To design a header:

1. Select the board you wish to design.
2. Click the Designer tab > Header. 
3. To add a header to your board, enable Show Header. If disabled, your board appears without a header.

  • Upload your own file.
  • Find a logo from the web through Folloze.
