# Set up the Quest Portal

{% hint style="info" %}
**Prerequisites**

* You need a Domino account with at least one [community created](https://docs.domino.run/docs/quest-management/creating-your-community-on-domino)
* Access to the community's settings in Domino
  {% endhint %}

## Overview

Every Domino [community](https://docs.domino.run/docs/quest-management/creating-your-community-on-domino) 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](https://docs.domino.run/docs/quest-management/launching-your-first-quest), view [leaderboards](https://docs.domino.run/docs/domino-portal/creating-leaderboards), and engage with your content. You have full control over your portal's configuration, from basic details to advanced [customization](https://docs.domino.run/docs/domino-portal/customizing-quest-portal-branding) (covered in a separate guide).

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

## 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](https://docs.domino.run/docs/quest-management/launching-your-first-quest) (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

**Expected Outcome**

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

### 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.

### 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](https://docs.domino.run/docs/domino-portal/customizing-quest-portal-branding) in your portal settings.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you need help setting up a custom domain or have special requirements, reach out to the Domino team for assistance.
{% endhint %}

### 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](https://docs.domino.run/docs/domino-portal/customizing-quest-portal-branding) guide for advanced options.)

## Launching and Managing Quests

Your Domino portal supports all the same quest types and [automations](https://docs.domino.run/docs/automations/building-your-first-automation) as other platforms like Zealy. You can create, edit, and publish [quests](https://docs.domino.run/docs/quest-management/launching-your-first-quest) directly from the Domino dashboard, and your community members will see them instantly on your portal.

{% hint style="success" %}
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.
{% endhint %}

## 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
