Creating Guest link for document library with some customised features

Hi All,

I have created the  Guest link for document library  but after opening the link in the browser, it should  display  items that I have added while editing that page such as our school logo and some web parts etc. Is there a way to achieve this? Currently the link is displaying the contents of document library with the Document library name in the header.

Thanks in advance.

    Couple questions for you first, and I am assuming that you are using the Classic UI for editing this document library. Also, an image of what you see vs. what your guest users see would be nice.

    1. Do your users see the Modern UI when accessing your site? If so, I don't think Modern UI for document libraries would display the custom-added web parts that the Classic UI would show.
    2. Do your webparts display pieces of your site that are dependent on permissions? For example, is your logo coming from a place that your guest users don't have Read access to (this would result in the image not being rendered for them), and/or are your webparts from other libraries/lists that have their own permissions set?

      Thanks Mr. Matt for the reply.

      My users see modern UI when accessing my shared link for document library.

      I will insert the logo from the computer and will check.
