Board Setup

Set up your domain, design, SEO, navigation, and content.

Set up your board's domain, visitor experience, and launch settings. Use Website builder for the AI-generated frontend and Settings for the board configuration linked below.

Recommended setup order

Connect your custom domain so your board runs on your own URL
Customize page layouts with the AI website builder
Set up your design system with logo, colors, and fonts
Configure SEO settings for meta titles and descriptions
Set up navigation and footer links
Embed a jobs widget on your main website

Confirm the setup

Publish frontend changes from the builder, then open the public board in a private browsing window. Confirm the browser uses your primary domain, the homepage reflects the saved layout and design, the header and footer links open the intended destinations, and the browser tab shows the expected page title. If you added the widget, test it on the external page and open one job from it. Use the linked guide for any item that does not match the dashboard configuration.

For example, complete the domain, design, navigation, and SEO steps before sharing a launch URL. Add OAuth, redirects, password protection, or a jobs widget only when your board's launch plan needs them.
