# Your Overleaf portal Overleaf Commons subscription includes a customized portal page where your users can find out more and join the subscription, view relevant templates, and access help resources. During onboarding, we work with you to customize your portal with text, images, and templates for your users. Example of a custom portals can be found on our [list of participating institutions page](https://www.overleaf.com/for/institutions-using-overleaf). Portal pages typically include these sections: an **Overview**, the **Quick Start** section, a list of **Featured Templates**, and an **FAQ & Help** section. * The **Overview** describes who the subscription is for, which could include all students and staff, or which might be restricted to a particular set of departments or roles. The Overview may state who is providing the subscription, particularly if it is sponsored by a university library or particular faculty. Overviews can optionally point to other pages hosted by the institution, which may provide additional information or reminders about information technology policies. * The portal's **Quick Start** section provides a set of links that help different kinds of users to start using the Overleaf platform. From the Quick Start page, users can start writing a paper, select a template, or access learning resources. The Quick Start section of the portal page is frequently helpful to new Overleaf users. * Overleaf Commons subscribers can optionally identify a set of **Featured Templates** for their users. These are selected templates from the Overleaf Gallery that are either specific for the institution, or of particular interest to its users. * The **FAQ & Help** section provides quick answers to common questions about the Overleaf platform or the subscription. The text and images on portal pages are decided on during the subscription onboarding process. If changes are needed to the portal page, requests for updates can be sent to [the Overleaf Success team](mailto:success@overleaf.com). ## New and future Overleaf Commons administrators and managers As part of the subscription onboarding process, the Overleaf onboarding team will gather the information required to build your portal page and will be available to answer any questions. ## Current Overleaf Commons administrators and managers If any changes or updates to your portal page are required, please reach out to the [Overleaf Success team](mailto:success@overleaf.com). We are happy to help with updating images, text, or FAQs, adding templates to your portal, or any other changes that are needed. ## FAQs ### How do we add a new template to our featured templates page? All the templates on the featured templates page are hosted in the Overleaf Gallery. So the first step in adding a featured template is to ensure that it is available in the Gallery. Please follow the [instructions for publishing in the Gallery](https://www.overleaf.com/learn/how-to/Publishing_templates_and_examples_in_the_Overleaf_Gallery), and then get in touch with Overleaf Support to let us know to add the template to your featured templates page. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
