Page Settings Reference

Page-level settings live in two places in the editor: the controls above the page title, and the Page Settings panel. This page lists every one of them with its default and what it changes for readers.

Prerequisites

You need edit access to the project, and the page open in Edit mode.

Controls Above the Title

These sit in a row directly above the H1.

Control	Options	Default	What it does
Page icon	Any emoji	None	Shows an icon beside the page title in the sidebar.
Page type	Page, External Link	Page	External Link turns the sidebar entry into a link to a URL outside your docs instead of a page with content.
Visibility	Public, Hidden	Public	Hidden removes the page from the sidebar and table of contents, and excludes it from search in your hub, along with any subpages beneath it. The page is still reachable by direct link, so use Hidden to reduce noise, not to protect content. This is the same setting as Hidden in the Page Settings panel.
⋮ menu	History, Page Settings, Hide Table of Contents, Raw Mode	Toggles off	History opens the page's version history. Page Settings opens the panel below. Hide Table of Contents removes the right-hand heading list from this page only. Raw Mode switches the page to a Markdown source editor and locks it for other editors while on.

Page Settings Panel

Open it from the gear icon in the right rail or from ⋮ → Page Settings. It has four sections.

Page Options

Setting	Type	Default	What it does
Hidden	Toggle	Off	Not shown in the sidebar or table of contents, but accessible by direct link. Same setting as Visibility → Hidden above the title.
Deprecated	Toggle	Off	Marks the page as deprecated. The page stays visible to readers.

Footer

Setting	Type	Default	What it does
Custom Pagination	Toggle	Off	Replaces the default Previous and Next page buttons at the bottom of the page with content you choose.

Metadata

Controls how the page appears in search results and when its link is shared on social media.

Setting	Type	Default	What it does
Display Image	Image upload	None	Image shown in the preview when the page's URL is shared on social media.
SEO Title	Text	The page title	The `<title>` tag and search-result headline. Leave blank to use the page title.
Slug	Text	Generated from the title on creation	The last segment of the page URL. Changing it changes the URL; see Redirect Scenarios for what happens to the old one.
Description	Text	The page excerpt	The meta description shown under the title in search results. Leave blank to use the excerpt.
Keywords	Comma-separated text	None	Meta keywords for the page.
Search Visibility	Select: Indexed by search engines, Not indexed by external search (Google, etc)	Indexed by search engines	Not indexed adds a `noindex` meta tag so external search engines skip the page; it does not affect search inside your hub.

Actions

Action	What it does
Delete Page	Permanently deletes the page.

⚠️ Deleting a page removes it and its URL. The deletion cannot be undone from History, which only restores earlier revisions of pages that still exist. Deleting a page on a branch stages the deletion on that branch; the page remains live on the parent version until the branch is merged. To recover a deleted page, contact support.

Saving

Settings save with the page. Use Save to publish directly, or Save to Branch to hold the change for review. See Branches.
