Additionally, the administration dashboard allows administrators to add custom HTML content, which is inserted into the bottom of the <head> section of every page. This feature is particularly useful for adding extra functionalities, such as analytics tracking codes (e.g., Google Analytics), custom scripts for integrations, or metadata adjustments for SEO optimization.
