Once your wiki is running, a few touches make it feel like your own. Most of these live in a short settings file in your GitHub copy — you change values, not code. The exact fields are listed in Settings; here’s what you can do.
Name and logo edit
Set your wiki’s name so it appears in the header and browser tab. Replace the logo by swapping in your own image. A clear name and a simple logo go a long way toward making a wiki feel established.
The look edit
Pick the defaults every visitor starts with:
- Style — Wikigit’s own clean look, or a Wiki style modeled on Wikipedia.
- Light or dark — or automatic, following each visitor’s device.
- Text size and column width — comfortable defaults for your content.
- Colors — adjust the accent and background tones to match your brand.
Visitors can always change these for themselves; your settings are just the starting point.
The home page edit
Your front page is the index page — edit it like any other to welcome people and point them to your best content. See Organizing your wiki.
A custom web address edit
Your wiki starts on a free address (like your-name.github.io/your-wiki). To use your own domain — wiki.yoursite.com or yoursite.com — point it at your wiki with your domain provider. Most providers make this a couple of clicks, and the host you publish to has a short guide for connecting a custom domain.
Languages edit
If your wiki will cover more than one language, turn on the languages you want. Each page can then have versions in those languages, linked together with a language switcher for readers. See Organizing your wiki.
