# Launch your guild

{% hint style="info" %}
**Guild v2 is currently in open beta. You can launch your guild at** [**era.guild.xyz/create**](https://era.guild.xyz/create)**.**
{% endhint %}

Once your guild has been created, you can start customizing it to match your project and community needs.

### Customize your guild

1. **Access your admin dashboard:**

* Click the settings icon (top right) to enter admin mode
* This is your control center where you can customize your guild's appearance, structure, and view all guild details

2. **Brand your guild:**

* Upload your logo (150x150px works best)
* Edit the page title, URL, and description to introduce your project
* Click **"Theme"** to upload a cover image (optimal size: 1920x1080px)<br>

3. **Organize your content:**

* Click **"Add page"** to create separate sections for campaigns, onboarding, or different community groups
* Drag pages to reorder them in your preferred sequence
* Each page can have its own focus, but keep your home page simple and clear since members will see this first

4. **Configure the basics:**

* Go to the **Settings** tab in your admin dashboard
* Edit your guild name and main URL (this becomes your permanent guild link)
* Add your social media accounts (format: <https://x.com/yourproject>) - these appear on your home page for easy discovery
* Customize the appearance with surface and accent (button) colors that match your brand
* Add admins to your guild

**Test your setup:** Switch back to visitor mode to see what members will experience.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.guild.xyz/guild/getting-started/guild-api-alpha.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
