Settings

The Settings section covers your personal preferences within Foundaro Spokes and, for Admins, workspace-level configuration that affects all users.

Navigation Preferences

The sidebar navigation in Foundaro Spokes automatically remembers which sections you have expanded or collapsed between sessions. Your preference is stored locally in your browser and does not affect other team members.

How it works:

• Collapsed/expanded state: Each navigation section (Publishing, Planning, Assets, Store, Support, Insights, Administration) remembers whether it was open or closed the last time you used the app.
• First-time default: On your first visit, only the Publishing section is expanded. All other sections start collapsed.
• Per-browser: The state is saved to your browser's local storage. Clearing browser data or using a different browser will reset the sections to the default state.

Tips:

• Collapse sections you rarely use to reduce sidebar clutter and reach the sections you care about faster.
• If you work primarily with the Store or Support modules, collapse Publishing to keep those sections at the top of the visible area.

Account Settings

Account settings are personal to you and do not affect other team members.

Key fields:

• Display name: Your name as shown in author credits and comments.
• Email: The email address associated with your account. This is managed in the Foundaro Hub workspace settings.
• Avatar: Your profile photo. Used in author bios, comments, and the activity feed.
• Timezone: Your local timezone. Used for displaying dates and times in the editor.
• Language: The interface language for Foundaro Spokes (if multiple languages are enabled).

Notifications

The Notifications section controls when and how Foundaro Spokes alerts you to activity.

Notification triggers:

• Review assigned to me: Notify when a content item is assigned to me for review.
• Review request approved: Notify when a review I submitted is approved.
• Review request rejected: Notify when a review I submitted is rejected with feedback.
• Comment on my content: Notify when someone comments on content I authored.
• Comment reply: Notify when someone replies to a comment thread I participated in.
• Content published: Notify when content I authored goes live.
• Scheduled item missed: Notify when a scheduled item did not publish at the expected time.

Notification channels:

• In-app: Bell icon notifications visible in Foundaro Spokes.
• Email: Email to your registered address.

Tips:

• Disable notifications you do not act on — notification fatigue causes important alerts to be ignored.
• Enable the Scheduled item missed notification if you run time-sensitive campaigns.

Default Content Settings

Admin-only settings that pre-configure defaults for new content items.

Key fields:

• Default site: The site pre-selected when creating new content.
• Default author: Whether new content defaults to the logged-in user or a specific author.
• Default review required: Whether all new content requires review before publishing.
• Default reviewer: Who is assigned as reviewer when review is required.
• SEO defaults: Default meta description template and OpenGraph image fallback.

Why it matters:

Sensible defaults reduce friction for authors. If 90% of content goes to one site, presetting that site means authors never have to change it.

Integrations

Admin-only settings for connecting external services.

Available integrations:

• Analytics tracking: Paste your Google Analytics 4 measurement ID, Plausible domain, or Fathom site code. Applied to all sites unless overridden at the site level.
• Webhook: Configure a webhook URL to receive a POST request when content is published, updated, or deleted. Useful for triggering CDN purges, search index updates, or custom pipelines.

Available webhook events: content.published, content.updated, content.unpublished, content.deleted, form.submitted. Select which events to subscribe to using checkboxes when creating a webhook.

• Search: Connect an Algolia or Meilisearch instance for site search functionality.

Tips:

• Site-level analytics settings override workspace-level settings. Use workspace-level for a default, and per-site settings for exceptions.
• Test webhooks with a service like RequestBin before connecting to a production pipeline.
