Setting Up Your District

If you haven't created your District yet, you can get started here. Once you've selected your plan (Free, Basic or Pro) and created your District, you can make site adjustments in Builder and adjust options in your District Settings.

Easily set up and personalize your District using the Builder, which is accessible from your Dashboard by clicking the "Open Builder" button. Make aesthetic changes as well as upload branding elements like your logo, banner, and other key media elements you want simply by using the built-in prompt.

You can make key settings adjustments through your Dashboard. Please note these changes can be done on the website dashboard (not the District app).

To change your District's settings:

  1. Go to your Seller Dashboard on Web (not app).
