This page controls the basic website information and several global display options.

Before you edit this page​

Make sure you already created the default currency code from Currency Code.

This matters because the Currency Code field only accepts an existing currency code.

Most common mistakes​

  • entering http:// instead of https:// in Site Url
  • selecting a currency code that does not exist yet
  • setting Uploaded Files Max Size too low, then KYC uploads fail
  • turning off signup or login without understanding the effect on customer access
  • enabling homepage blog display before any blog posts exist

If the page does not save​

Check these points first:

  • Site Url must be a valid URL and must start with https://
  • Currency Code must already exist in Currency Code
  • blog limit fields should be whole numbers
  • review limit fields should be whole numbers
  • image compression should be a number, not text

These three fields control how the public review system behaves:

  • Reviews Per Page: controls how many reviews are shown on the public reviews page
  • Manually Reviews Approve: keeps customer-submitted reviews pending until an admin approves them from Reviews
  • Review Maximum Length: controls the maximum number of characters allowed in review text on both admin and customer forms

Important notes:

  • Reviews Per Page affects the public review page, not the admin review list
  • Manually Reviews Approve affects customer-submitted reviews more than admin-created reviews
  • admin-created reviews still follow the Status value you choose on the review form

If you also want spam protection for review forms, configure:

Best practice​

  • use the real live domain, not a temporary URL
  • keep uploads large enough for identity documents
  • use manual review for reviews and comments if quality control matters
  • review SEO, Footer Settings, and Social & Contact after this page
