After successful installation of Tubes Booster, we recommend you to perform basic setup of your Tube site. All initial adjustments can be found in the Settings > Appearance section.
In the Appearance section, the administrator can modify the basic visual and identity of their site. Here he/she sets the page title, short tagline and description, which are displayed in the header and also serve for SEO. It is also possible to upload custom logos for the header and footer, a favicon for the browser and a webclip icon for mobile devices. The main menu of the page - its items, links, order and visibility - is also customized in this section. There is also a setting for links to social networks such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and others that appear on the site. The admin can add backlinks (backlinks) to affiliate, friends sites and customize the 404 page with custom headings, text and backgrounds. There are also informational messages such as cookie consent, 18+ content alerts, and site outage notifications - all with text editing and on/off options. Finally, you can choose the color scheme of the site, including the color of the background, texts, links and buttons.
