Navigate to the **Admin** area and go to the **Appearance** page.
Under **System header and footer** insert your header message and/or footer message.
Both background and font color of the header and footer are customizable.
You can also apply the header and footer messages to GitLab emails,
by checking the **Enable header and footer in emails** checkbox.
