Hello Sergiu, hello Vincent, so I'll customize the global.vm in the templates directory, thanks for your help! I still would prefer to customize the skin but there's still the problem with the login page (which indeed is no problem at all when I change global.vm). Or is this perhaps a farm problem?

Hello,
customization of skins is a very fine solution for changing page structures, cause it survives updates. In pre XWiki 3.1 we edited the global.vm of the colibri skin and our header was shown on all pages, including the login. In XWiki 3.1 there is no global.vm (in colibri) anymore and the skin customizing doesn't work on the login page, so how can we change that page, too?
You can add a new global.vm file under colibri if you want to. It used to be there because colibri needed to override the default one found under /webapps/xwiki/templates/, but since now Colibri is the default skin, it no longer needs to override anything, the other skins (toucan and albatross) have to do the override.
