# Branding Removal

## What is Branding Removal?

Branding removal is included with the CMS **Standard** plan ($9.99/mo). This helps make your community website look professional, without the branding included on the free plan.

## In-App Branding

### Footer Branding

Branding removal hides the "Powered by Sonoran CMS" in your website's bottom footer.

### Browser Tab Favicon

Branding removal customizes your browser tab favicon to your community logo set in your customization settings.

### Browser Tab Title

Website page names are formatted as `Title | Sonoran CMS`\
Branding removal takes away the `| Sonoran CMS` at the end of it.

### Vanity URL or Custom Domain

[Customize your community ID](/cms/tutorials/customization/community-branding-and-settings.md#community-id) for a nicer vanity URL `ID.sonorancms.com`

Or, use [your own fully-custom domain](/cms/tutorials/customization/custom-domain.md#custom-domain) with the **Pro** plan!

### Forms Auto-Reply Avatar

When using a [forms stage automation to auto-reply](/cms/tutorials/forms/creating-custom-forms.md#form-stage-actions) to a submission, the auto-reply avatar will use your custom community logo.

## Push Notifications

Mobile and desktop push notifications alert users when community events begin, form stages change, and more!

Branding removal changes the Sonoran CMS icon to your community's custom logo!

## Social Page Embeds

Anyone can [customize their website embeds](/cms/tutorials/community-website/website-builder.md#page-seo) for social platforms like Discord.

Branding removal removes the `| Sonoran CMS` from the embed title.

## Discord Bot

The Sonoran Discord Bot can have a [custom avatar, nickname, banner image, and bio](mailto:undefined)! These can be customized in the CMS Discord Integration's Settings panel.

Note: Due to Discord rate limits, changes can take up to five minutes to become visible.

## Emails

### Custom Form Stage Emails

[Custom forms](/cms/tutorials/forms/creating-custom-forms.md) allow communities to send personalized email notifications to their members when stages are changed.

Ex: Moving a Membership Application from `Pending` to `Accepted`

The email subject follows a `Sonoran CMS | Community Name | Form Updated` format.\
Branding removal takes the `Sonoran CMS |` out of the subject line.
