Managing Globals
Last updated 1 November 2026
Update company-wide details in one place, and every page and email that shows them changes too.
Change your globals when a company detail changes: a new logo, a new phone number, an office move or a new social account. Every page and email that shows the detail picks up the change, so you update it in one place.
Update your globals
- In the admin, open CMS and choose Globals.
- Find the group that holds the detail: brand identity, brand assets, social links, a location or a PO box.
- Make your change.
- Save.
Only administrators can edit globals; the form refuses anyone else.
What you can change
| Group | Fields |
|---|---|
| Brand identity | Company name, ID and registration, slogan, website address, two email addresses |
| Brand assets | Logo, icon, alternate logo, alternate icon, email logo, alternate email logo |
| Social links | Facebook, YouTube, Google+, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, Pinterest and two other links |
| Locations | Five locations: name, address, email, contact person, time zone, opening hours for each day, notes, phone, fax and image |
| PO boxes | Two PO boxes: box number, address, city, state, postcode and country |
Check the change
Open a page that shows the detail. A developer can read the current value from code:
insites-cli exec liquid docs57 "{% include 'modules/insites_cms/globals' %}{{ context.exports.global.company_name | json }}"
"Insites Docs"This ran read-only on the docs.insites.io instance on 1 November 2026.
Tip
If a page still shows the old value, it may be cached. Check the page's Cache tab in the CMS.
Common mistakes
- Changing a detail in a page instead of in Globals. Other pages keep the old value.
- Uploading a logo with a very different shape. Pages and emails were laid out for the old one; check them after the change.
- Clearing a location slot that a page still reads. That page then shows an empty address.
