Exploring the look and feel
Explore the look and feel settings in a SharePoint site. Learn how to change the title of a site, add a description, and even add a logo to a site.
- [Instructor] Hi, here we are…in our H+ Marketing Team Site,…and we're going to look at the title description…and logo section of our site's settings.…We're going to see how we can go ahead…and change the title of our site,…add a description,…and add a logo.…By default, SharePoint site comes with this logo.…This is just a simple SharePoint logo.…We're going to go ahead and put in our company logo instead.…Now we're signed in today as Maria Santos.…You can see that up here in the upper right corner,…and Maria is our site owner.…And Maria has all the permissions that we need,…but you don't have to be a site owner…to do these sorts of things,…but you do need to be either a designer…or a site editor to be able to make these changes.…
The easiest way to tell…is you see the little gear icon here?…Click on that,…and when you look down this list,…if you don't see site settings,…then you don't have the permissions you need.…And if you want those permissions,…you'll need to talk to your site owner…and see if she can add you to that group.…
