## Branding & Appearance

`/admin/branding` is where you control how your community looks, what search engines see, and what analytics you collect. The page has 5 tabs.

For general tenant settings (members, suite, features, commerce, system), see [Site Configuration](/know/site-configuration).

## The 5 tabs

| Tab | What it controls |
|---|---|
| Name & Logo | Site name, logos (dark + light), favicon |
| Appearance | Default theme, theme labels, role labels, custom CSS |
| SEO | Meta defaults, GSC, Bing, robots.txt, llms.txt, AI bot allowlist, sitemap refresh |
| Analytics | GA4, GTM, Plausible, Fathom, PostHog, AdSense |
| White Label | Footer attribution toggle (paid add-on) |

Each tab saves independently.

## Analytics

Drop in your provider IDs and the platform injects the right script tags server-side. No HTML pasting required. See [Analytics Tab](/know/admin-branding-analytics) for the deep dive.

Supported providers:
