    <!-- Brand Logo -->
    <a href="index3.html" class="brand-link">
        <img src="dist/img/AdminLTELogo.png" alt="AdminLTE Logo" class="brand-image img-circle elevation-3"
             style="opacity: .8">
        <span class="brand-text font-weight-light">AdminLTE 3</span>
    </a>

    <!-- Sidebar -->
    <div class="sidebar">
        <!-- Sidebar user panel (optional) -->
        <div class="user-panel mt-3 pb-3 mb-3 d-flex">
            <div class="image">
                <img src="dist/img/user2-160x160.jpg" class="img-circle elevation-2" alt="User Image">
            </div>
            <div class="info">

        <nav class="mt-2">
            <ul class="nav nav-pills nav-sidebar flex-column" data-widget="treeview" role="menu">
                <!-- Add icons to the links using the .nav-icon class

                    </a>
                    <ul class="nav nav-treeview">
                        <li class="nav-item">
                            <a href="#" class="nav-link active">
                                <i class="far fa-circle nav-icon"></i>

                </li>
                <li class="nav-item">

        </nav>
        <!-- /.sidebar-menu -->
    </div>
    <!-- /.sidebar -->
</aside>

Alternate Logo

You can use two logo images instead of logo with text, you only need to change the markup to this:

<a href="#" class="brand-link logo-switch">
    <img src="dist/img/logo-xs.png" alt="AdminLTE Docs Logo Small" class="brand-image-xl logo-xs">
    <img src="dist/img/logo-xl.png" alt="AdminLTE Docs Logo Large" class="brand-image-xs logo-xl" style="left: 12px">
</a>

Example from v3.0 docs.

Based on the example above, you can replace .brand-image-xl on .logo-xs with .brand-image-xs or vice versa on .logo-xl for changed logo sizes.

Brand with Pushmenu Button

You can place the pushmenu button inside the brand, simply replace the brand-link code with the code below:

<div class="brand-link d-flex justify-content-between align-items-center">
    <a class="brand-link" href="index3.html">
        <img src="dist/img/AdminLTELogo.png" alt="AdminLTE Logo" class="brand-image img-circle elevation-3">
        <span class="brand-text font-weight-light">AdminLTE 3</span>
    </a>
    <a class="pushmenu" data-widget="pushmenu" href="#" role="button"><i class="fas fa-bars"></i></a>
</div>

Search Form in Sidebar

You can add this code above user-panel or nav-sidebar:

<form class="form-inline">
    <div class="input-group">
        <input class="form-control form-control-sidebar" type="search" placeholder="Search" aria-label="Search">
        <div class="input-group-append">
            <button class="btn btn-sidebar" type="submit">
                <i class="fas fa-search"></i>
            </button>
        </div>
    </div>
</form>

{: .max-height-300}

Sidebar Custom Area

You can add a Custom Area inside the Sidebar to display extra buttons or text below your menu entries.

You can simply add this code after the div.sidebar:

<div class="sidebar-custom">
    <a href="#" class="btn btn-link"><i class="fas fa-cogs"></i></a>
    <a href="#" class="btn btn-secondary hide-on-collapse pos-right">Help</a>
</div>

Warning!

The Sidebar Custom Area works only with .layout-fixed enabled. {: .quote-warning}
