✅ As an Admin, I want to define main settings of my site
Behavior from source: An admin opens Space Settings from homepage or space-sidebar controls, configures general feature visibility, branding and navigation, and saves changes. Privacy and URL settings delegate to separate access and domain stories. The source also proposes moving document-level settings into space settings; linked meeting/review evidence leaves editor overrides unresolved.

Source acceptance and behavior
Open Space Settings from the homepage three-dot menu or the space-name/three-dot control in the left panel.
A first General tab controls Enable Conversations, Enable Activity Tabs, Show Document Browser, and Show Collection View Options and Controls; switching Conversations off also switches Activity Tabs off.
Question-mark tooltips explain that Conversations permits document conversations, Activity Tabs shows Conversations and Members for comments/backlinks/membership, Document Browser shows the left-side hierarchy, and Collection controls provide search/filter/sort/view for subdocuments.
Identity settings allow editing the site name, uploading a logo with live preview, uploading a favicon, and uploading a cover image; Save persists changes.
If no logo is uploaded, use the text fallback described in the source as “the first word of the name and the name”; the precise rendering needs clarification.
Navigation settings add top-bar links, update the preview as links are added/removed, and delete each link with an x control.
“+ Add a link” opens Item name and Link name fields, the latter auto-generating a URL slug; Header layout and Content Width are configurable and Save persists changes.
Privacy-tab behavior is specified in the linked space-access story, and Address URL behavior in the linked free/custom-domain stories, not independently defined here.
Reject invalid-format or oversized logos with an explanatory error toast; crop/scale wrong-dimension covers to 1600×400.
Allow duplicate link names but warn about slug collisions; sanitize special characters to URL-safe slugs.
At six link items, disable Add link item and explain the limit in a tooltip.
Prompt to discard unsaved changes when navigating away or switching tabs; on a network Save failure, show a retryable error and preserve form state.
