Configure your Pro site settings

What site settings control

Site settings are the global configuration for your entire Pro account. Unlike course settings (which apply to a single course), these affect everything: what your students see when they arrive at your site, who they contact for help, and the web address they use.

Think of site settings as the foundation layer. Branding and terminology sit on top of it, and individual course settings sit on top of those.

How to access site settings

  1. Log in to your Pro site as an Admin.
  2. Click your profile photo or initials in the top-right corner.
  3. Select Manage Site.
  4. Click Settings in the admin sidebar.

You'll see your current configuration. Make any changes and click Save.

Available settings

Site name

Your site name appears in the header of your site, in browser tabs, and in system-generated emails to students. This should be your business name, school name, or program name.

To change it, update the Site Name field and save. The change takes effect immediately across the site.

Support email

This is the email address students see when they look for help. When a student clicks "Contact Support" or sees an error message suggesting they reach out, they'll be directed to this address.

Set this to an inbox you or your team actively monitors. If you have a dedicated support email (like help@yourbusiness.com), use that.

Tip: Keep this up to date. If students email an address nobody checks, they'll think nobody is listening.

Custom domain

Your custom domain is the web address where your Pro site lives. Instead of a default Ruzuku URL, your site can be at an address like learn.yourbusiness.com or courses.yourbrand.com.

Setting up a custom domain involves two steps:

  1. Create a CNAME record with your domain registrar that points your chosen subdomain to Ruzuku's servers.
  2. Enter the domain in your site settings.

For the full step-by-step process, see Set up your custom domain.

Note: If DNS or CNAME setup feels unfamiliar, email support@ruzuku.com with your domain registrar name and the subdomain you want to use. The team can walk you through it.

Analytics and tracking

If you want to track visitor behavior on your Pro site, you can add third-party analytics or tracking scripts (like Google Analytics or a Facebook Pixel) through your site settings. Paste the tracking code into the designated field, and it will load on every page of your site.

This is useful for understanding how prospective students find your courses and where they drop off in the enrollment process.

Site settings vs. course settings

It's worth being clear on the difference:

Site settings (this article) Course settings
Apply to your entire Pro site Apply to one specific course
Site name, support email, custom domain Course name, access format, enrollment toggle, notifications
Managed via Manage Site → Settings Managed via Manage Course → Course Settings
Only available on Pro Available on all plans

For course-level configuration, see Course settings overview.

Other site-wide features

Site settings is one part of the Manage Site admin area. The other sections you'll use regularly:

  • Branding -- Logo, colors, login page, and multiple brand options.
  • Terminology -- Change the default labels used across your site.
  • People -- Manage users, create new accounts, change roles.
  • Data -- Download enrollment, payment, and progress data across your entire site.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I change my site name after setting it up?
Yes. Go to Manage Site → Settings, update the Site Name field, and save. The change takes effect immediately across your site, including browser tabs and system emails.
Will students see the support email I set?
Yes. The support email you enter is the address shown on your site's help and support pages. Make sure it's an inbox you check regularly.
Can I use any domain registrar for my custom domain?
Yes. You can use any registrar (GoDaddy, Namecheap, Cloudflare, Google Domains, etc.) as long as you can create a CNAME record. See the custom domain setup guide for full instructions.
What's the difference between site settings and branding?
Site settings cover foundational configuration: your site name, support email, custom domain, and tracking scripts. Branding covers the visual identity: logo, colors, login page design, and multiple brand options. Both are in the Manage Site area but serve different purposes.
