Customization

Customization can be found on the left sidebar when a Dev Portal is selected.

Menus

Visibility

All menu items have visibility controls. Visibility is Private by default, and will only be displayed to logged-in Developers. If Public is selected, the menu item will be available to all visitors to your Dev Portal.

Main Menu

Main Menus are a flat list of links that will be added to the header of every page in your Dev Portal. These titles/links will be spaced evenly horizontally.

Footer Menu Sections

Footer Menus allow you to create a set of columns with links for global navigation. Select Footer Sections Menu from the dropdown list to begin creating your menus.

Footer Sections create vertical columns across the bottom of every Page, with the Logo from Appearance on the left side. It’s best to create your desired Footer Sections before creating Footer Menu Items.

Footer Menu Items are links to any URL you prefer, with a title to be displayed. Items must specify a Footer Menu Section.

Footer Bottom Menu

Footer Bottom Menu is a flat list of links that will be added to the bottom of every page. Footer Bottom Menus are placed below Footer Menu Sections.

SEO

To optimize how search engines crawl your Dev Portal, you have the ability to specify /robots.txt directly.

See the Google Search Central reference for more information on robots.txt.
