Note: The answer was written for PRTG 7.2/7.3, but it is still valid for PRTG 8, too.

Login Screen Adaptation

There are several reasons for adapting the PRTG login screen. Maybe you are a company that uses its own PRTG installation to monitor customers' sites and you want to supply customized login screens with your customers' logos when they log into your PRTG installation.

PRTG Login Screen

There are two solutions to do this which are both quite easy to deploy for any webmaster:

  1. Solution 1: Copy the HTML code of the <form> tag from PRTG's login webpage and place it on your own website (note: the login form where you enter your credentials must not necessarily be served by the PRTG web server)
  2. Solution 2: Make a copy of PRTG's default login page (file "login.htm" in the "/PRTG Network Monitor/website/public/" folder, e.g. into login2.htm), edit it as necessary (make sure you keep the <#include file="includes\loginform.htm"> placeholder) and then give the customer this unique URL (e.g. http://prtgserver/public/login2.htm). 
<html>
  <body>
    <#include file="includes\loginform.htm">
  </body>
</html>

Many PRTG users want to use their own logos and/or corporate colors for the web interface of their PRTG installation. A hidden feature of PRTG 7.2.x allows you to modify the look and feel of the web interface using just a few CSS statements. For more information see the instructions on How to Re-Brand and Customize the PRTG Web Interface Using CSS.
