Change how your site looks

Set your docs site's title, theme, accent colour, logo, footer links and search engine settings.

Site settings are on the Settings tab of the publish page. Admins, the owner and Site admins can change them. Everyone else can see them.

Like pages, setting changes are staged. They go live the next time someone publishes. Changed settings are marked Not live yet until then. The one exception is Let search engines index this site, which takes effect straight away.

Open the settings

Open the public docs brain under Knowledge and select Site settings beside its name. Or select Review & publish and then the Settings tab.

What you can set

Site

  • Title: shown in the header and browser tab. Leave it empty to use your home page's title.
  • Description: one or two sentences for search results, shared links and llms.txt.

Appearance

  • Theme: ako, Quiet or Editorial.
  • Accent colour: used for links and the current page, as a six-digit hex colour such as #3346d3. ako refuses a colour too light to read on a white page and suggests a darker one.
  • Logo: a PNG shown in the header beside your title. Without one, the header shows your title's first letter.

Footer

  • Copyright, and links to your Privacy policy and Terms. Links must start with https://.

Search engines and sharing

  • Social image: the picture shown when someone shares a link to your site.
  • Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools: paste the verification tag each one gives you.

Integrations

  • Status page: linked as "Status" in your footer.

Your site's address

The Address at the top of the tab is where readers find your site. It comes from your organisation's short name.
