Settings
Open Settings with Ctrl+,, or the gear at the bottom of the file tree. Changes apply as you make them. Restore defaults at the bottom resets your preferences, and keeps your text snippets and stock photo keys.
Search settings
Section titled “Search settings”To find a setting without knowing its section, start typing as soon as Settings opens, or click Search settings at the top of the list, or press Ctrl+F. Matching settings from every section show in place, so you can change them right there. Type a section, group, or collection name, such as SEO or Posts, to see everything in it. Esc clears the search, and pressing it again closes Settings.

On Linux, Features also has System title bar, which puts your desktop’s own title bar and window buttons back in place of Zeku’s.
Where settings are kept
Section titled “Where settings are kept”Your preferences belong to your computer and are kept in Zeku’s app data, not in your project. A few choices that describe the project instead, such as which collections the dashboard shows and field types you set, are kept in the project’s .zeku folder so they follow it. See How Zeku reads your site.
