4 4  
5 -* Delete non-required extensions:
6 - * Extensions > Extensions > In the selection menu, select "Installed Extensions" > Search for "Tour Application", "Help Application" and "Sandbox Application" and uninstall them
7 -* Upload Logo (displayed in the upper left corner of the website):
8 - * Look & Feel > Themes > Color Theme > COLOR THEME > Customize > Logos > Choose an attachment > Browse > Upload and select > Safe & View
9 -* Add a tab bar below the website header:
10 - * Look & Feel > Menus > Add new entry > (create a menu, for example "Header Menu")
11 - * Add links to each bullet point so that users who click on the tab are directed to the appropriate page.
12 - * At the bottom of the Menu page: Menu Display Location = After the page header; Menu Visibility Scope = Global.
13 -* Adapt navigation panel items to your needs (the boxes at the edges like "Navigation" or "Recently Created")
14 - * Look & Feel > Panels > Panel List
15 -* Change browser tab title:
16 - * Look & Feel > Presentation > Header > Title > Remove the " - XWiki"
17 - * Change favicon: Look & Feel > Themes > Skin > Customize > Edit > Logo > Choose Attachment > Browse > Select the image you want to have as a favicon. Make sure that the name of the image matches the names mentioned in the [documentation](http://sandbox.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/How+do+I+add+a+favicon+for+my+wiki). For example, svg files must be named "icons.xwiki.favicon.svg". > Upload and select image > Save & View
18 -* Enable justification in editor:
19 - * Editing > WYSIWYG Editor >
20 - * Default WYSIWYG Editor > CKEditor > Save (Note: There are two "Save" buttons on this page.)
21 - * CKEditor > Disables Plugins > Open selection of disabled plugins > uncheck "justify" plugin > click on "Save" button **below**
22 -* Disable registration of new accounts:
23 - * Users & Rights > Rights > XWikiAdminGroup > Add a check at "Register". Implicitly all other groups (including unregistered users) lose their right to register new accounts. See the [docs](https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/AdminGuide/Access%20Rights/) for further details.
24 -* Allow comments feature for unregistered users:
25 - * Users & Rights > Rights > Remove the "Comment" check for each group. This implicitly allows all groups (including unregistered users) to use the comments feature.
26 -* Set up mailing:
27 - * Mail > Mail Sending > Email address to send from > (enter the necessary fields to enable XWiki's mailing functionality)
28 - * Users & Rights > Registration > User Email verification > Yes
29 -* Adapt the timezone:
30 - * Content > Localization > Date/Time > Timezone
31 -* Use Markdown as page editing syntax:
32 - * Extensions > Extensions > Install CommonMark Markdown Syntax 1.2.
33 - * Edit > Syntax > Disabled syntaxes
34 - * Enable "CommonMark Markdown 1.2
35 - * Uncheck "XWiki 2.1
36 - * Saving
37 - * Newly created articles automatically use Markdown syntax by default. When editing, simply click the "Source" button to open the Markdown source editor.
38 - * Old articles will still use the previous default syntax, such as "XWiki 2.1" syntax. However, you can migrate old pages from the old syntax to the new syntax:
39 - * Go to the page to edit > Information > SYNTAX > click the "Edit" icon > select "CommonMark Markdown 1.2". > A "Syntax Conversion" popup appears - click "Yes" > click the "Confirm" icon. You should now be able to edit the page in Markdown.
40 - * Sometimes manual adjustments are required after conversion, as it does not always work as desired.
41 -* Adapt the footer - Hide XWiki version and add copyright information.
42 - * Look & Feel > Presentation > Footer > Here you can find the fields "Copyright" and "Version".
43 - * Since an empty "Version" field results in the current XWiki version being displayed, I left the "Copyright" field empty and entered the license in the "Version" field. Here are two examples when using Markdown syntax as described above:
