# How to configure Dashboard Portal?

This feature is only available in [WP Delicious Pro](https://wpdelicious.com/pricing/). We’ve introduced shortcodes to help you create specific pages easily. Below is the list of pages and their respective shortcodes:

- **Submit Recipe:** `[dr_submit_recipe]`
- **My Recipes:** `[dr_my_recipes]`
- **Browse Recipes:** `[dr_all_recipes]`
- **Favorites:** `[dr_favorites_recipes]`
- **Edit Profile:** `[dr_edit_profile]`
- **Login Page:** `[dr_login]`

### How to Create These Pages:

1. Go to **Dashboard > Pages > Add New**.
2. Create a new page and insert the respective shortcode for the page.
3. Once the pages are created, you can add them to the **User Dashboard** as tabs.

To unlock all the features of the Dashboard Portal, you need to create a Recipe Dashboard Page and assign it to the User Dashboard settings. Detailed instructions for this setup are available in this [documentation](https://wpdelicious.com/docs/user-dashboard-settings/#0-toc-title).

In the Dashboard Portal settings, there are some predefined tabs such as **Favorites**, **My Recipes**, **Browse Recipes**, and **Submit Recipes**. If you wish to disable any of these predefined tabs, simply toggle off the option in the action settings.

You can also upload a new logo for Dashboard Portal.

If you want to add custom pages or link tabs to the User Dashboard, you can do so by clicking on the **Add New Tab** option. After creating a new tab, follow these steps to configure it:

- Enter a name for the new tab.
- Choose an icon to represent the tab.
- Click on the settings icon to further customize the tab. Here, you can add a link for the tab or select a page from the dropdown menu. Additionally, you can enable a toggle to open the tab in a new browser window if needed.
