In the Site Editor, there is an Identity section where you can add and edit your Site Title, Site Tagline, Site Logo, and Site Icon at a high level without needing to edit any blocks directly. You can also edit these directly in the canvas of the Site Editor. Any changes you make in the Identity section will be reflected on the canvas and available after saving on your site. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
