Customizing Reports Manager (SSRS 2008 R2)

  • All,

    I'd like to make some small cosmetic changes to my install of Reports Manager (SSRS 2008 R2). Maybe change the color of the tool bar and add a logo.

    I was able to find this style sheet file on my PC:

    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportManager\Styles\ReportingServices.css

    However, making changes to this file does not show within Reports Manager.

    When I do a view source on the page, here's a reference I see to a style sheet:

    /Reports/styles/ReportingServices.css

    The path doesn't match the path I listed first.

    How can I get access to the css file being referenced in the home page of Reports Manager?

    Thanks,

    Mark

  • Hi Mark,

    That looks like the right style sheet...

    Here is one I just did to test it works:

    And the bit of the css that I changed...

  • mister magoo,

    Odd, I tried clearing my cache numerous times yet didn't see any changes to that style sheet but I tried once more and it worked.

    Thanks for the help!

    Regards,

    Mark

  • Ah good, glad to help:-D

  • Sorry for the late reply (2 years), but I recently bumped into this, and came up with the following solution.

    The solution for SSRS 2008/2008R2/2012 is to use CSS to alter the rendering of the page.

    1) Edit the following file: ReportingServices.css, located at C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS.[Instance Name]\Reporting Services\ReportManager

    2) Line to be added just before the "body" specification:

    [font="Courier New"]

    @import url(customization.css)[/font]

    3) Save the file, and create a new file in the same directory called "customization.css".

    4) Place the following in customization.css:

    [font="Courier New"].msrs.logo

    {

    height: 53px;

    width: 125px;

    background: url("../images/your_new_logo.jpg") no-repeat;

    text-indent: -9999px;

    }

    [/font]

    5) Add your replacement logo in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS.[Instance Name]\Reporting Services\ReportManager\images directory. Be sure that it matches the name and size that you specified in customization.css.

    6) Bring up the SSRS web page and enjoy! This solution works well because it will preserve all of the positive customizations that can be performed via the web UI, and is minimally invasive on the back end.
