Space settings
Every Space has a settings page at
/dashboard/space/<id>/settings where you control the public presence,
branding, integrations and ownership.
Public profile
| Field | What it controls |
|---|---|
| Display name | Title of the public page and meta tags. |
| Slug | The URL handle in /space/<slug>. Changes to the slug should be rare — old URLs are not redirected automatically. |
| Description | Long-form text shown on the public page. Markdown supported. |
| Logo | Square image used as avatar across the platform. |
| Cover image | Banner shown at the top of the public Space page. |
| Category | Editable only by Emblema staff after creation. |
| Country / city | Used to surface local Spaces in discovery surfaces. |
Social links
Add the URLs of your community channels:
- X / Twitter
- GitHub
- Mastodon
- Discord / Slack invite link
- YouTube channel
- Personal website
- Any other URL marked as "additional link"
Social links are shown on the public Space page and on every event's public page.
Open Badge issuer profile
When you issue an Open Badge 3.0, the badge's issuer field is the Space. The issuer profile includes:
- Issuer name (defaults to the Space name).
- Issuer URL (defaults to the public Space page).
- Issuer logo (defaults to the Space logo).
- Verification method DID — managed by Emblema platform-wide; you do not need to provide your own keys. The signing keys (ED25519) are held by Emblema and rotated according to the Open Badges 3.0 spec.
You can review the issuer JSON-LD (the metadata that verifiers will fetch) from the Issuer profile sub-page in settings.
Visibility and discovery
- Public (default) — the Space is listed in the public Space directory and indexed for search.
- Unlisted — the Space is reachable only via direct URL.
- Archived — the Space is hidden from listings and from new event creation, but existing events and badges remain accessible.
Ownership and roles
The settings page also lists the Owners of the Space. Each Space must have at least one Owner. To transfer ownership:
- Invite the new owner from Team with the Owner role.
- After they accept, demote yourself to Editor (or leave the Space).
If you are the only Owner and you want to leave the Space, transfer ownership first; otherwise the Space cannot be administered.
Followers
The settings page surfaces the count of followers of the Space and links to
/dashboard/space/<id>/followers
where you can review the people who follow your Space and broadcast
announcements (when announcement features are available).
Danger zone
The bottom of the settings page exposes the irreversible actions:
- Archive Space — hides it from public listings.
- Restore Space — un-archives it.
- Delete Space — soft-delete; reach out to support if you need a hard deletion. Open Badges already issued remain valid because they are cryptographically signed.
