Change site-wide text

Last updated 4 November 2026

Your company name, contact details and social links in one place.

Globals hold the details that appear all over your site: your company name, slogan, logos, contact emails, social links, locations and PO boxes. Set them once under CMS, and every page that shows them updates when you change a value. This guide fills them in and shows one on a page.

What globals hold

TabWhat it holds
Company DetailsCompany name, ID, slogan, URL, two emails, business registration, logos and icons
EmailsThe logo and alternate logo used in emails
Social LinksFacebook, X, YouTube, LinkedIn, Instagram, Pinterest and two other links
LocationsUp to five locations, each with an address, contact details and opening hours
PO BoxesPO box numbers and addresses

Note

You cannot add your own fields to globals. For other shared text, use a partial, or a database when editors need to change it often.

Set the values

  1. In the admin, go to CMS > Globals.
  2. Choose a tab, for example Company Details, select Edit, fill in the fields and save. Upload the logo you put in Assets in the last guide.
  3. Do the same on Emails and Social Links.

Show a value on a page

Each tab has a Toolbox beside the form. Select a field name in it to copy the tag for that value, then paste the tag into a page, partial or layout where the value should appear. The page also needs one line that loads the globals; put it in your layout and every page that uses the layout has them. The line and a worked footer example are in Change site-wide text with globals.

From then on, editing a field under Globals changes it everywhere it is shown.
