[Feature Request] [Low priority] Define instance name in config

[fnetX]

Hey,
I'd like to change the title of the software to something else when running an instance of my own. People seem to get confused between Doodle, Dudel and Croodle, and having multiple Croodle servers does not exactly help here.
In addition, I got an idea to create a service where the user can kinda define the poll name itself, and I'd like to use Croodle as a base since it's much more secure than simple alternatives.

Request:

I would appreciate a php-based config option to change the instance name, e. g. to Troodle.
I see that the software is not yet designed to do so easily.

I can try and work on that, but I guess I need some input about the basics of ember to find a 'fancy' approach.

This is already possible by overriding some parts of the templates in a fork. I think for your use cases it would be these lines:

croodle/app/templates/application.hbs

Line 3 in 32e5971

{{title "Croodle"}}

croodle/app/templates/application.hbs

Line 6 in 32e5971

<h1 class="cr-logo">{{#link-to "index" class="navbar-brand"}}Croodle{{/link-to}}</h1>

This is not considered public API of course and would be easier if controlled by configuration. But I think this is related to the more general question of theming and branding, which is not officially supported yet.

I don't think serving a configuration via API is the way to go for theming. That would have a very bad performance impact as it would require to wait for another network request to fulfill before initial render.
