Description

Adds runtime instance branding for self-hosted Plane (no build-time isBranding flag).

Operators can set brand name (instance_name), logo/favicon URLs, support email, website URL, and optionally hide Plane marketing chrome via InstanceConfiguration (God Mode + Docker env seed). Values are exposed on public GET /api/instances/ so login screens work unauthenticated. Empty values keep Plane defaults.

Also updates email templates/tasks to use brand_name / brand_logo_url, hides marketing/upsell when HIDE_PLANE_MARKETING=1, and introduces English {brand} i18n placeholders for a few chrome strings.

Type of Change

  • Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
  • Feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
  • Improvement (change that would cause existing functionality to not work as expected)
  • Code refactoring
  • Performance improvements
  • Documentation update

Screenshots and Media (if applicable)

Test Scenarios

  • Set BRAND_LOGO_URL / BRAND_FAVICON_URL / BRAND_SUPPORT_EMAIL in env (or God Mode General), restart API, confirm login/sidebar/favicon/support use custom values.
  • Leave branding empty and confirm Plane logo / defaults still render.
  • Enable HIDE_PLANE_MARKETING=1 and confirm help-menu Plane docs/sales, powered-by, and upgrade CTAs are hidden; work-item watch/subscription still works.
  • Trigger a workspace invitation email and confirm subject/body use instance name and brand logo when configured.
  • Run apps/api unit tests for branding config defaults and apps/live brand-mark tests.

Only show MaintenanceView if instance data was never loaded, so brief /api/instances/ failures do not force the startup error screen.

Fixes makeplane#9658
Surface API errors when accepting an invite, guide users signed in with the wrong email, and prevent double-submit.

Fixes makeplane#9660
Add access_revoked so public-project Join cannot reactivate admin-removed
memberships until an admin adds or invites again. Voluntary leave can still rejoin.

Fixes makeplane#9662
Publish remove events over Redis to Live /membership so the removed
user clears local access and redirects without a refresh.

Fixes makeplane#9664
Publish create/update/delete activity to Redis and fan out via Live
/work-items so other clients update boards without refresh.

Fixes makeplane#9666

signed-in mismatch and response behavior, and add unit coverage for both
anonymous and authenticated invitation states.
- Around line 86-93: Update each invitation action catch block in the page,
including the handlers around getJoinErrorMessage and the additional indicated
catch blocks, to report the caught error through the existing client
error-reporting mechanism with clear operation context. Keep the existing user
toasts and ensure invitation tokens are never included in logged data.

In `@apps/web/core/hooks/use-brand.ts`:
- Around line 13-45: The useBrand hook lacks unit coverage for its branding
resolution behavior. Add tests using the existing package test framework that
verify default fallbacks, dark-theme logo selection with light-logo fallback,
and Boolean handling of hidePlaneMarketing; target the useBrand hook and its
returned fields without changing implementation behavior.

In `@apps/web/core/services/membership-realtime.service.ts`:
- Around line 32-36: Update the socket close handler used by
MembershipRealtimeService to ignore close events from sockets that are no longer
the current this.socket. Before clearing service state or scheduling reconnect
logic, verify the closing socket is identical to this.socket; return without
side effects for replaced sockets, while preserving normal handling for the
active connection.

In `@apps/web/core/services/work-item-realtime.service.ts`:
- Around line 71-77: Update the close handler in the socket-opening logic to act
only when the closing socket is still the current this.socket instance; ignore
superseded sockets so they cannot clear the active connection or schedule
stale-parameter reconnects. Add a regression test covering connect with
different project parameters before the first socket emits close, and verify the
newer socket remains tracked and disconnectable.

Outside diff comments:
In `@apps/web/app/`(all)/invitations/page.tsx:
- Around line 138-145: Update the invitation toggle button in the invitation
list, identified by its isSelected state and handleInvitation onClick, to
include aria-pressed={isSelected} so assistive technology can detect whether the
invitation is selected.

Minor comments:
In `@apps/admin/components/brand/instance-brand-head.tsx`:
- Around line 15-30: Update the useEffect in
apps/admin/components/brand/instance-brand-head.tsx:15-30 and
apps/web/core/components/brand/instance-brand-head.tsx:15-30 to restore the
baseline document title when the custom name is cleared or reset to Plane, and
restore baseline favicon URLs when faviconUrl is absent; add unit tests in each
package covering custom-to-default title and favicon transitions.

In `@apps/api/plane/app/views/project/invite.py`:
- Around line 277-290: In the project invitation acceptance flow, update the
reactivated workspace membership to set workspace_member.access_revoked to False
before saving it, alongside the existing workspace membership reactivation and
project_member reset logic.

In `@apps/api/plane/license/utils/instance_value.py`:
- Around line 101-107: Update get_email_branding_context so branding environment
values are trimmed before the existing fallback resolution, causing
whitespace-only logo, support email, and website values to use their defaults
while preserving non-whitespace values. Add a regression test covering
whitespace-only environment inputs and fallback behavior.

In `@apps/api/plane/tests/unit/utils/test_membership_realtime.py`:
- Around line 40-48: Update
test_build_project_member_removed_event_requires_project_id to pass
workspace_id="ws-1" while leaving project_id omitted, ensuring the assertion
specifically verifies that project_id is required.

In `@apps/api/plane/utils/work_item_realtime.py`:
- Around line 98-110: Update the issue.deleted handling in the realtime payload
construction to obtain the deleted issue’s creator from a safe persisted source
before applying restricted-guest filtering, while preserving the existing
payload behavior for other event types. Add an integration test covering a
restricted guest receiving a foreign issue deletion and verify that the event is
filtered out.

In `@apps/api/templates/emails/invitations/project_invitation.html`:
- Line 61: Add alt text using the existing brand_name template variable to both
configurable logo images: update the image at
apps/api/templates/emails/invitations/project_invitation.html lines 61-61 and
the image at apps/api/templates/emails/notifications/issue-updates.html lines
18-18. No other changes are needed.

In `@apps/api/templates/emails/test_email.html`:
- Line 5: In the email template paragraph containing “Regards,” replace the
invalid closing break tag with a self-closing br element, preserving the
surrounding text and brand_name interpolation.

In `@apps/space/components/brand/instance-brand-head.tsx`:
- Around line 16-28: Update the useBrand effect to capture the initial document
title and favicon values, then restore those defaults when the configured name
resolves to the default or the faviconUrl is undefined. Preserve applying custom
branding when values are present, and ensure clearing branding updates both DOM
values without requiring a reload.

In `@apps/web/app/`(all)/workspace-invitations/page.tsx:
- Around line 63-79: Update handleAccept to validate that token is present and
non-empty before setting submission state or calling
workspaceService.joinWorkspace; when missing, follow handleReject’s local
rejection pattern and show an actionable error toast, then return without making
the request.

In `@apps/web/core/components/brand/instance-brand-mark.tsx`:
- Around line 16-20: Add web-package unit tests for InstanceBrandMark covering
its default mark variant, forwarding of useBrand name and logoUrl to BrandMark,
and the lockup/custom-brand path with an explicit variant and className. Use the
package’s existing test framework and established component-testing patterns.

In `@apps/web/core/hooks/use-membership-realtime.ts`:
- Around line 39-43: Update the catch block surrounding fetchWorkspaces in the
workspace membership realtime handler to capture the typed error and log it with
the existing logging mechanism before continuing the forced-logout redirect
flow. Preserve the current behavior of ignoring the refresh failure for control
flow.

---

Nitpick comments:
In `@apps/live/src/server.ts`:
- Around line 48-51: Implement shutdown lifecycle handling for both realtime
hubs: add a shutdown() method to the membership and work-item hub classes that
unsubscribes and quits each duplicated Redis subscriber, then invoke both
shutdown methods from destroy() before redisManager.disconnect().

In `@packages/propel/src/icons/brand/brand-mark.tsx`:
- Around line 19-31: Update BrandMark to track custom logo load failure via the
image onError handler, then render PlaneLockup for lockup variants or PlaneLogo
otherwise when loading fails. Preserve the existing custom-logo rendering for
successful loads and the current fallback behavior when no custom logo is
configured.

Notify the admin on a failed save.

The catch block only logs the error with console.error(err). It does not show an error toast. If updateInstanceInfo or updateInstanceConfigurations fails, the admin gets no success toast and no error toast. The admin cannot tell whether the settings saved.

If updateInstanceInfo succeeds but updateInstanceConfigurations fails, the instance name and telemetry setting save, but the branding change does not save, and no message tells the admin about this partial failure.

Show an error toast in the catch block so the admin gets clear feedback on failure.

Preserve historical voluntary-leave access.

Line 212 adds a flag that blocks rejoin. However, apps/api/plane/db/migrations/0125_mark_inactive_members_access_revoked.py marks every historical inactive membership as revoked. Both voluntary leave flows also store is_active=False. Historical self-leavers will therefore require a new invitation, although voluntary leave must preserve self-rejoin behavior.

Backfill only removals that have reliable administrative-removal evidence. If no such evidence exists, leave historical rows unrevoked and apply access_revoked only to future administrative removals.

Honor HIDE_PLANE_MARKETING in this email template.

Line 496 makes this email appear instance-branded, but the footer still contains Plane forum, social, and roadmap links. The supplied email-branding context has no marketing-visibility value. A deployment with HIDE_PLANE_MARKETING=1 will still send Plane marketing links in this account-deactivation email.

Pass the marketing setting into the email context. Omit the Plane marketing footer when it is enabled.

Require authentication before showing invitation response actions.

When currentUser is undefined, isEmailMismatch is false and the page shows Accept and Ignore actions. Both actions call an endpoint that rejects unauthenticated requests before it processes the response. Show a sign-in action that preserves the invitation URL, or redirect to sign-in before rendering the response actions. Add unit coverage for anonymous and signed-in invitation states.

Log invitation action failures.

Each catch block discards the caught error after it creates a user toast. Log the error through the existing client error-reporting mechanism with operation context. Do not include the invitation token in the log.

Ignore close events from replaced sockets.

A reconnect calls disconnect(), resets closedByClient, and opens a new socket. If the old socket then emits close, its handler clears this.socket for the new connection and schedules another reconnect. This can create duplicate sockets and duplicate membership events.

Compare the closing socket with this.socket before mutating service state or scheduling a reconnect.

Proposed fix
     socket.addEventListener("close", () => {
+      if (this.socket !== socket) return;
       this.socket = null;
       if (this.closedByClient || this.attempt >= 8) return;

Ignore close events from superseded sockets.

connect() closes the old socket and opens a new socket before the old socket emits "close". The old handler then sets this.socket = null and schedules a reconnect with stale parameters. The new socket becomes untracked and remains open after a later disconnect().

Only clear or reconnect when this.socket === socket. Add a regression test that reconnects with different project parameters before the first socket closes.

Proposed fix
     socket.addEventListener("close", () => {
+      if (this.socket !== socket) return;
       this.socket = null;
       if (this.closedByClient || this.attempt >= 8) return;

Thank you for the detailed proposal and for the effort that went into this implementation. We've reviewed it carefully, and we're going to close this PR without merging.

To be direct about the reasoning: replacing the Plane name, logo, and marks with a third party's branding is not something we support in the open-source distribution, and it isn't a capability we intend to add. While Plane is licensed under AGPL-3.0, the Plane name, logo, and associated marks are trademarks and are not covered by that license. The attribution surfaces this PR makes configurable the product logo, the favicon, the "powered by Plane" footer, and the branding in transactional email are how users of a deployment know what software they are running, and we consider preserving them a condition of using the project rather than an operator preference. Adding a first-party, supported path to remove them would work directly against that position.

We appreciate you engaging with the project, and we're sorry this particular contribution isn't one we can take.
