About
Content Hubs is the next evolution of the legacy Video Portal. Built on Kaltura's Theming design system, it provides a modern user experience with flexible page building, centralized branding, and customizable layouts.
This article introduces the main capabilities of Content Hubs and links to articles that explain how to configure each feature.
Watch the following video for an overview of the Theming design system.
Content Hubs capabilities
Content Hubs offers customization and page-building capabilities powered by the Theming design system:
- Centralized branding – Define your site's colors, typography, and other visual settings in one place using the Theme Builder.
- Custom pages – Create homepages and landing pages by combining reusable components.
- Site-wide navigation – Configure a consistent header, footer, navigation menus, and call-to-action buttons that appear across your site.
