The Logo & Icon tabcontains fields for setting the logo and site icon for your installation. The logo is displayed at the top of the site's pages while the icon is displayed on the browser's tab.

The Email Tab allows you to configure the way your installation will send out email. If you set the protocol to 'Mail', the system will use the default Laravel email configuration that is configured in your .env file. If you wish to easily configure SMTP credentials, change the protocol to 'SMTP' and set your credentials. We recommend that you verify the accuracy of your SMTP credentials before saving them in this form. You can use a tool such as:https://smtpserver.com/smtptest

AI Settings

The AI settings page allows you to configure your Open AI credentials. This is necessary for the system to be able to use AI. Get your credentials (API key and organization) from your Open AI account. The GPT model is the model that will be used for requests. We recommend that you use the most capable models and test their output when generating or evaluating tests. The request timeout is how long the system waits for Open AI servers to respond. You can leave the default setting.

Currencies

You can install multiple currencies for your installation. Click on the 'Settings'-'Currencies' link to open the currencies management page:

The table lists your currently installed currencies. The system must have one default currency. This is the main currency that others will be converted from. This is the currency with which you price your subscription plans. The exchange rate displays the number that will be multiplied by your subscription fees to produce the new currency. So if, for example, your default currency is USD and you wish to add Euro as a second currency, get the Euro to Dollar exchange rate. If the rate is 1 Euro to 1.08 USD, then set 1.08 as your exchange rate for Euro.

To add a new currency, click on the 'Add New' button

The form provides the following fields:
