Chapter 9. Customizing IBM Lotus Quickr

Usually the first question from the business people we meet, sounds similar to this: "Can we customize Lotus Quickr without too much effort?" The IT people in the meeting begin to cringe. Why? Because they know that customization of Lotus Quickr can cause headaches. Not big ones, but little ones which normally appear during upgrades and maintenance down times.

For those of you worried about those little headaches, we will show you how to make some enhancements and how to ensure you retain them, even during upgrades. We will be discussing customization ideas around logos, colors, creating templates from your designs, and more.

As an administrator, you should be able to follow our guidelines to produce some successful customizations. You can either document these customizations yourself, for reference at a later date or simply keep this chapter readily available.
