Set up the Quest Portal

Learn what a Domino community portal is, how to configure its basic settings, and how to make it your own. Covers portal availability, essential setup, authentication, custom domains, and more.

Prerequisites

• You need a Domino account with at least one community created

• Access to the community's settings in Domino

Overview

Every Domino community comes with its own branded portal by default. This portal is the public face of your community, where members can discover and participate in quests, view leaderboards, and engage with your content. You have full control over your portal's configuration, from basic details to advanced customization (covered in a separate guide).

This guide will walk you through the essential setup steps and explain the key options available for your portal.

Your Domino portal is automatically created and ready for you to configure and launch quests.

What is a Domino Community Portal?

A Domino portal is a dedicated web space for your community, automatically provisioned when you create a community in Domino. It allows you to:

• Launch and manage quests (the same quests can be published to both Domino and Zealy)

• Showcase your community's branding and content

• Control access and authentication methods

• Add custom domains and content (banners, navigation links, etc.)

You don't need to perform any extra steps to make your portal available—just create a community, and your portal is live at your-slug.domino.page.

Basic Portal Configuration

You can access and update your portal's settings from the Domino dashboard. The most important configuration options include:

Community Details

• Name: The display name for your portal and community

• Slug: The unique URL identifier (e.g., yourcommunity.domino.page)

• Description: A short summary of your community's purpose

• Logo: Upload light and dark mode logos for your portal

Update your portal's name, slug, description, and logo from the settings page.

Expected Outcome

After completing this section, your portal will display your community's branding and be accessible at your chosen URL.

Authentication Methods

Control how users can join and log in to your portal:

• Social Logins: Enable Discord and Twitter login options

• Wallet Logins: Allow users to connect with supported crypto wallets

You can enable or disable these options at any time from the Authentication tab in your portal settings.

Choose which authentication methods are available to your community members.

Custom Domain Support

You can add a custom domain to your portal (e.g., community.yourdomain.com) for a fully branded experience. This is managed from the Branding tab in your portal settings.

If you need help setting up a custom domain or have special requirements, reach out to the Domino team for assistance.

Custom Content and Navigation

Your portal supports custom banners, navigation links, and other content blocks. These options allow you to tailor the portal experience to your community's needs. (See the Customizing Portal Branding guide for advanced options.)

Launching and Managing Quests

Your Domino portal supports all the same quest types and automations as other platforms like Zealy. You can create, edit, and publish quests directly from the Domino dashboard, and your community members will see them instantly on your portal.

You have full control over your portal. If you need a feature or can't find a setting, contact the Domino team—we're here to help you make your portal perfect.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your portal setup or configuration, check the following:

• Portal not accessible: Make sure your community is published and the slug is correct

• Custom domain not working: Double-check DNS settings and domain configuration

• Authentication issues: Ensure the desired login methods are enabled in settings
