How to Add a Logo to Your Dapple Organisation

Follow these steps to add your business logo or image to your account

Written by Oz Osbaldeston

To add a logo to your Dapple Organisation, open Settings → Organisation → General, scroll to Organisation Logo, and upload an image. The logo automatically appears on all emails sent from your account (apart from forms with a header image which will show instead), on your public submission forms, on your Page, and on receipts. Set this once at the start; you rarely need to change it. PNG with a transparent background is the best choice.

Where does the logo appear?

Where

How it shows

At the top of confirmation, message, and notification emails

Pages (public project landing pages)

How to add or update your logo

  1. Click your Organisation name or initials in the top-left corner.

  2. Open Organisation Settings.

  3. Open the General tab.

  4. Scroll to Organisation Logo.

  5. Click the upload area and select an image file (PNG or JPEG).

  6. Save.

The change takes effect immediately. Any emails sent or forms loaded from this moment on will use the new logo.

What format and size should I use?

Property

Recommended

File format

PNG with transparent background (best for emails) or JPEG

Recommended size

400×400px to 800×800px square — Dapple resizes automatically

Maximum file size

Under 1 MB for fast loading

What to avoid

Vertical logos (poor email rendering), images with white backgrounds on dark email themes, oversized files

Logo + merge tag — avoid double imagery

If you also use the /OrganisationLogo merge tag inside a message template, your logo will appear twice in that email — once from your Organisation Settings (automatic) and once from the merge tag. To fix:

  • Decide where you want the logo: top of email (automatic) or inline via merge tag.

  • If automatic, don't add /OrganisationLogo merge tags to templates.

Most organisations leave the automatic logo on and skip the merge tag — simpler and consistent.

Best practice for logos

  • Use a transparent PNG so the logo looks clean on light and dark email themes.

  • Test by sending yourself a confirmation email after uploading — make sure it renders well.

  • Keep it under 1 MB. Large images slow down email loading and may get clipped on mobile.

  • Refresh annually if your brand changes — outdated logos send the wrong signal.
