Basic Setup

Learn how to set up Kener with a simple configuration

Once you have Kener running, you should now have a basic status page up and running. However, you may want to customize it further to fit your needs. In this section, we will go through some of the basic setup options available in Kener.

Most of the default settings are designed to work out of the box, but you can customize them by using the dashboard.

Customize

Site Configuration

  • Site Name: The name of your status page. This will be displayed in the header and title of the page.
  • Site URL: The URL of your status page. This is used for sharing and linking to your status page.

Important

Setting up the Site URL correctly is very important for Kener to function properly.
