changeKibanaLogo7.6

To make this work, clone the repo locally, stop kibana, drag the custom_css folder into the plugins folder (usually at /usr/share/kibana/plugins), change <yourbase64image> in main.less to a 64 bit encoded svg image, then start Kibana.

In order for new plugins to work, kibana needs to rebundle. If that's not done automatically (check the logs -- and it can take 20 mins to finish), then download another plugin. Stop kibana, cd /usr/share/kibana and I used bin/kibana-plugin install https://github.com/prelert/kibana-swimlane-vis/releases/download/v7.6.2/prelert_swimlane_vis-7.6.2.zip and then start kibana again. You can remove the plugin after kibana starts up successfully.

If you want to change the logo when Kibana first loads, change src/core/server/rendering/views/styles.jsand adjust <yourbase64image>. You may need to adjust some of the margins to center your logo correctly.

.kibanaWelcomeLogo {
            width: 60px;
            height: 60px;
            margin: 10px 0 0px 10px;
            background-repeat: no-repeat;
            background-size: contain;
            background-image: url('data:image/svg+xml;base64,<yourbase64image>');
          }

To change the start-up text "Loading Kibana", look in src/core/server/rendering/views/template.js.
