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 +* Adapt the footer - Hide XWiki version and add copyright information.
16 + * Look & Feel > Presentation > Footer > Here you can find the fields "Copyright" and "Version".
17 + * 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:
