### &#x20;:tools: How to Customize my Spaces Directory?

1. **Edit the Page:**
   * Add the **Spaces Directory** app from the catalog if not done yet.
   * Publish the page.
2. **Configure Settings:**
   * Hover over the app to access settings.
3. **Options Available:**
   * **Display Options:**
     * Add a custom header or keep default display for space creation and invitations.
   * **Sorting & Filtering:**
     * Sort by name or recently visited.
     * Enable filtering by category and set max subcategory depth.
   * **Filter List Options:**
     * Any space.
     * Filter by templates (see [Managing Space Templates](/meeds-guides/admin-guide/organizing-communities/managing-space-templates.md)) .
     * Filter by category and customize related filters  (see [Managing Categories](/meeds-guides/admin-guide/advanced-customization/managing-categories.md)).

### :bulb: Good to know

Ensure directory content aligns with access permissions.

* If a directory lists spaces from a restricted category, users without access to the category will see an empty directory.
* You can use the Spaces Directory app on a public page. Anonymous visitors will see the listed spaces only if the server is in *Open* access mode (see [Platform Access](/meeds-guides/admin-guide/setting-up-meeds/advanced-setup/platform-access.md))
