When creating your branding properties, you can organize properties into multiple sections to make them easier to find in the Branding Editor. You can also organize your properties within sections.

- Order properties within sections in a logical manner. For example, organize them alphabetically.
- Order sections and properties by dragging and dropping them within the Branding Properties view.

1. From within your site, click **Site Configuration** | **Branding Properties**.
    
    The Branding Properties editor appears.
2. Click ![Add a branding property](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-platform-extend_click-264-0-0-production-enus/5f7d9219-b7b1-4552-8891-f1aba9b289fc/extend_click/images/siteforce_icon_newproperty.png).
3. Enter a name for the property in the Label field.
    
    The expression name is filled in automatically. The expression name is used in style sheets and code blocks.
