Customize help and support links
The web interface has two customizable links in the footer – Help and Support.
By default, only the Support link is enabled, directing users to a built-in support page with links to various Adaxes documentation.
However, it might be more practical to point these links to resources that are relevant to ordinary users. For example, your company's help and support pages. You can also rename repurpose these links as you see fit. You will learn how to do it in this tutorial.
