Customize emails, configure your privacy and domain settings, set hub notification preferences, add tracking pixels, and much more in your Hub settings
All key settings you can configure in your Hub settings include setting up your Hub's privacy level, adding your custom domain to your Hub, and customizing your Hub's emails. Your Hub settings are accessible on the left side of your screen from the Hub Dashboard.
Your Searchie Hubs settings are categorized into General, Engagement, and Optimization. Let's explore how to access these settings and customize your options effectively.
Click the "Settings" tab to access all customization options. Each setting is specific to the selected Hub but affects the Hub as a whole. Below you’ll find more information on what each menu item allows you to customize.
General
Privacy
The Privacy menu lets you choose your Hub's privacy level, and control video, audio, and transcription downloads.
