# OpenPanel
|
|
|
|
Edit nameservers, disable features and more.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The OpenPanel Settings page allows you to edit settings and features available to users in their OpenPanel interface.
|
|
|
|
## Branding
|
|
|
|
To set a custom name visible in the OpenPanel sidebar and on login pages, enter the desired name in the "Brand name" option. Alternatively, to display a logo instead, provide the URL in the "Logo image" field and save the changes.
|
|
|
|
## Set nameservers
|
|
|
|
Before adding any domains its important to first create nameservers so that added domains will have valid dns zone files and be able to propagate.
|
|
|
|
Configuring nameservers involves two steps:
|
|
|
|
1. Create private nameservers (glue DNS records) for the domain through your domain registry.
|
|
2. Add the nameservers into the OpenPanel configuration.
|
|
|
|
Here are tutorials for some popular domain providers:
|
|
- [Cloudflare](https://developers.cloudflare.com/dns/additional-options/custom-nameservers/zone-custom-nameservers/)
|
|
- [GoDaddy](https://uk.godaddy.com/help/add-custom-hostnames-12320)
|
|
- [NameCheap](https://www.namecheap.com/support/knowledgebase/article.aspx/768/10/how-do-i-register-personal-nameservers-for-my-domain/#:~:text=Click%20on%20the%20Manage%20option,5.)
|
|
|
|
To add nameservers from OpenAdmin navigate to Settings > OpenPanel and set nameservers in ns1 and ns2 fields and click on save:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Or from terminal run commands:
|
|
```bash
|
|
opencli config update ns1 your_ns1.domain.com
|
|
opencli config update ns2 your_ns2.domain.com
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
:::info
|
|
After creating nameservers it can take up to 12h for the records to be globally accessible. Use a tool such as [whatsmydns.net](https://www.whatsmydns.net/) to monitor the status.
|
|
|
|
If you still experience problems after the propagation process, then please check this guide: [dns server not responding to requests](https://community.openpanel.co/d/5-dns-server-does-not-respond-to-request-for-domain-zone).

## Enable Features
|
|
|
|
Administrators have the ability to enable or disable each feature (page) in the OpenPanel interface. To activate a feature, select it in the "Enable Features" section and click save. The change is immediate and restarts OpenPanel service.
|
|
|
|
Once enabled, the feature becomes instantly available to all users, appearing in the OpenPanel interface sidebar, search results, and dashboard icons.
