Branding a Single Upload

Your account branding sets the default look for every download page. You can also override it for one specific transfer, so a single upload can look different without changing your default. Available on the Max plan.

Account branding and per-upload branding

The customization page in your account sets your default branding, and it is applied to every download page you create. Per-upload branding lets you tailor one specific transfer on top of that. It is useful when a single client or project needs its own look.

How to customize a single upload

Open the upload you want to brand from your Uploads list, then select Customize branding in the upload settings panel. This opens an editor that looks exactly like that upload's download page, with the same controls as your account branding:

  • Colors
  • Logo
  • Background image or color
  • Greeting text
  • File count display
  • Template

The editor seeds from your account branding to start, so you begin from your usual look and adjust only what you need for this transfer. Make your changes and save.

How your branding is chosen

For each download page, ZappFiles decides which branding to show in this order:

  • The upload's own branding, if you have customized that upload.
  • Your account-wide branding, if you have set it.
  • The default style for the selected template.

So an upload you have not customized always falls back to your account branding, and then to the template default.

Choosing a template for one upload

The per-upload editor also lets you pick a different download page template for that single transfer, separate from your account default. Your colors, logo, and background carry over to the template you choose.

Availability

Per-upload branding is available on the Max plan, the same as account branding.
