# Custom Content
The web dashboard supports custom content including markdown pages and media files. Content is served from the `CONTENT_HOME` directory (default: `./content`).
## Directory Structure
```
content/
├── pages/ # Custom markdown pages
│ └── about.md
└── media/ # Custom media files
└── images/
├── logo.svg # Full-color custom logo (default)
└── logo-invert.svg # Monochrome custom logo (darkened in light mode)
```
## Custom Logos
The web dashboard supports custom logo images placed in `media/images/`:
- `logo.svg` — full-color logo, displayed as-is in both themes (no automatic darkening)
- `logo-invert.svg` — monochrome/two-tone logo, automatically darkened in light mode for visibility
If no custom logos are provided, the default MeshCore Hub logos are used.
## Markdown Pages
Custom pages are written in Markdown with optional YAML frontmatter for metadata. Pages automatically appear in the navigation menu and sitemap.
### Setup
```bash
# Create content directory structure
mkdir -p content/pages content/media
# Create a custom page
cat > content/pages/about.md << 'EOF'
---
title: About Us
slug: about
menu_order: 10
---
# About Our Network
Welcome to our MeshCore mesh network!
## Getting Started
1. Get a compatible LoRa device
2. Flash MeshCore firmware
3. Configure your radio settings
EOF
```
### Frontmatter Fields
Pages use YAML frontmatter for metadata:
```markdown
---
title: About Us # Browser tab title and nav link (not rendered on page)
slug: about # URL path (default: filename without .md)
menu_order: 10 # Nav sort order (default: 100, lower = earlier)
---
# About Our Network
Markdown content here (include your own heading)...
```
| Field | Default | Description |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| `title` | Filename titlecased | Browser tab title and navigation link text (not rendered on page) |
| `slug` | Filename without `.md` | URL path (e.g., `about``/pages/about`) |
| `menu_order` | `100` | Sort order in navigation (lower = earlier) |
The markdown content is rendered as-is, so include your own `# Heading` if desired.
## Docker Configuration
With Docker, mount the content directory as a read-only volume. This is already configured in `docker-compose.yml`:
```yaml
volumes:
- ${CONTENT_HOME:-./content}:/content:ro
environment:
- CONTENT_HOME=/content
```
To customize the content path, set `CONTENT_HOME` in your `.env` file:
```bash
# .env
CONTENT_HOME=./content
```
