How to Update

  1. Edit the page, open the Link Grid component.
  2. Update tile titles or URLs, add tiles with Add Item, remove with ×.
  3. Adjust the Link Grid Display column count if the number of tiles has changed.
  4. Save.

⚠️ For internal links, always use the relative path starting with /, not the full domain. This prevents broken links if the domain ever changes.
