[AdminDesignSettings]

Written by Graham Brookins, 11/05/2026 Updated 11/05/2026 by Graham Brookins

Available since Exponential 6.0.15 (in development, not in a release yet).

The group [AdminDesignSettings] of settings/design.ini.

settings/design.ini; override it in settings/override/design.ini.append.php, in a siteaccess or in an extension.

Setting	Default	Description
ShowCommunityLinks	disabled	admin4: the footer's "Evaluate Exponential / Become a member of the Exponential Community" line. enabled shows it; disabled (the default) leaves it out. A template can also set $show_community_links.
TopMenuIcons	enabled	admin4: the icons before the tabs of the header's main menu (menu.ini [Topmenu_<tab>] Icon, a name of IconList[]). enabled (default) draws them; disabled shows the names alone. An extension's tab sets Icon= in its own menu.ini.append.php, and a siteaccess or extension may override any tab's Icon there.
IconList[]	123; archive; arrow-90deg-up; arrow-bar-down; arrow-bar-up; arrow-clockwise; arrow-counterclockwise; arrow-down; arrow-down-up; arrow-down-right; arrow-up; arrow-up-circle; arrow-up-right; arrows-collapse-vertical; arrows-expand-vertical; arrows-move; asterisk; bank; bar-chart-line; bell; book; bookmark; box-arrow-right; box-arrow-up-right; box-seam; briefcase; brush; building; calendar3; ...	admin4: the icons a setting may name (menu.ini LinkIcons[] of a menu drawn as tiles, the Setup overview). Each name has a mask rule .a4-bi-<name> in components.css (a Bootstrap Icons 1.13.2 SVG in share/icons/bootstrap-icons/svg/); a name not listed here draws the plug icon. An extension that ships an icon of its own adds its SVG, a rule .a4-bi-<name> in a stylesheet of BackendCSSFileList[] and IconList[]=<name> in its design.ini.append.php (doc/eng-us/features/6.0/admin4-design.md, "Setup overview").
