EmDash site settings

Open Settings in the site admin to review EmDash’s shared site identity, social, email and maintenance settings.

Checked against the product’s code on 7 November 2026.

Settings contains EmDash’s own configuration screens. Praxis also has account settings and Site workspaces. Choose the screen that owns the change.

General and social

1. Open Settings.
2. Choose General to open General Settings.
3. Change the intended field.
4. Save the change.
5. Review the result.

The screen holds Site Title, Tagline, logo, favicon and reading preferences such as Posts Per Page, Date Format and Timezone.

EmDash’s Change domain updates its recorded Site URL, used by EmDash’s own links. It does not connect a domain. Connect and manage a hosted site’s domains in your account. EmDash’s Continue on sign in handover and Email users are refused on Praxis sites: sign in from your account.

Social Links stores the site’s social profile details. These are separate from a page’s sharing title, description and image. Use SEO for page details used by search and sharing, and the site defaults.

Native SEO settings

In the site admin, open Settings > SEO for EmDash’s native settings. This is separate from Site > SEO in Praxis. The native screen offers Title Separator, Default Social Image, Google Verification and Bing Verification, alongside its robots settings. A verification value supplies a tag; it is not proof that the outside service accepted the site.

When a Praxis crawler policy is present, that policy supplies robots.txt instead of the native text box. Review crawler access through the Site SEO and Readiness workflows before assuming a native robots edit changed the public response.

Email

Email Settings shows EmDash’s email provider status.

1. Open Settings.
2. Choose Email.
3. Read the provider status.
4. Enter the intended test recipient.
5. Choose Send Test to attempt a message.
6. Read the result on screen.
7. Check the actual mailbox.

Forms, shopper accounts and order messages have their own delivery configuration. A provider shown in this screen alone does not prove that every kind of site email can be sent.

Backups

Only an Admin can manage backups.

1. Open Settings in the site admin.
2. Open Backups.

The Backups screen describes a content archive with drafts and published posts, Trash, media details and site settings, excluding user accounts and secrets. You cannot currently create or download that backup on the hosted site’s database.

Where the backup generator and storage support it, Back up now and Daily automatic backups store copies, and Backups to keep sets how many. These controls do not enable the unavailable hosted generator. When the limit is reached, each new copy permanently deletes the oldest one, and lowering the number deletes the oldest copies at the next backup. Deleting a stored backup yourself is also permanent.

These content archives are different from a database restore. To restore the site, ask Amadalis support: Amadalis staff restore your site’s database from one of its verified backups, and the site is suspended while the restore runs. The Point-in-Time Restore note on this screen describes EmDash sites using Cloudflare D1 database storage.

Media usage tracking

An Admin can review and set up media usage tracking.

1. Open Settings in the site admin.
2. Open Media usage tracking.
3. Read its current setup and indexing state.

If Enable tracking or Retry setup is offered, prepare before confirming:

1. Finish edits.
2. Pause other content writers.
3. Let running updates finish.

The confirmation says tracking cannot be turned off. Keep the page open until setup finishes. Follow Needs attention or an indexing error before relying on the reference index to be complete.
