These are the instruction on how to modify the color and text of the login page and launcher page for WCC r11.4 SP1 and above.

NOTES

You can do all these steps back to back and then clear the browser cache one time - there is no need to restart WCC services.
If you have WCC configured for high availability and you change the color or textof one instance, it WILL NOT change any of the other WCC instances.
Not sure what color you want to use? Use the HTML Color Picker.
After applying an incremental patch to WCC, the modified color(s) of the login and launcher page(s) WILL NOT be affected. If you added any text to the login and/or launcher page(s), this modification WILL be affected.
