How to set the home for a site or section?

Your site’s structure uses sections and variants.

Here’s how they relate:

  • A section is a top-level entry in your site structure.

  • A section can point to a single space, or contain multiple variants.

  • A variant always points to a space.

If a section points to a single space, you won’t see variants for it.

GitBook also has two “home” concepts:

  • Site home — the section visitors land on first.

  • Section home — the variant visitors land on first within a section.

Change the site home section

  1. Open Site settings.

  2. Select Structure.

  3. Find the section you want visitors to land on first.

  4. Click Set as home.

Change a section’s home variant

Use this when a section has multiple variants.

  1. Open Site settings.

  2. Select Structure.

  3. Open the section you want to update.

  4. Find the variant you want visitors to land on first.

  5. Click Set as home.
