Branding
Make your docs site feel like it belongs to your project.
Site title and description
The title appears in the header, browser tab, and when someone shares a link to your docs on social media:
site:
title: "Acme Platform"
description: "Developer documentation for the Acme Platform"
Logo and favicon
Replace the text title with your logo, and add a favicon for browser tabs:
site:
logo: "/logo.png"
favicon: "/favicon.ico"
Tip
Put these files inside your
docs/ folder. The path starts with / because it’s relative to the site root, not the config file.In multi-language setups, shared assets like logos can live in the root docs/ folder and be referenced from any language subfolder.
Announcement banner
Need to tell visitors something? Show a banner at the top of every page:
announcement:
text: 'Version 2.0 is out! <a href="/changelog">See what changed</a>'
dismissible: true
The banner supports basic HTML for links and formatting. When dismissible is true (the default), visitors can close it and it stays hidden — Dorcs saves their preference in the browser.
Note
Great for release announcements, maintenance notices, or pointing people to a survey.
Footer
Add copyright info, custom text, or a “Powered by Dorcs” link:
footer:
text: "Built with love by the Acme team"
copyright: "© 2026 Acme Inc."
show_powered_by: true
