Configure Your Zen Settings

You can configure settings for layout, menus, headers and footers at either the SITE or SPACE level.

How do I know whether to configure these settings at the site or space level?

A good practice is to configure site-wide settings when you want Zen to populate them over a majority of the site. Configure any space-specific settings from within the space.

Generally speaking, you will see the same configurable settings for the site that you see in a space.

You'll need Confluence Site (or global) Administrator privileges in order to modify Zen Site Settings.

The site level components control the navigation and layout of any space that uses the global theme, although they can be overridden at the space and page level. (Spaces can always apply their own brand, and still retain the global layout and menu defined in these Site Settings.)
