How can I modify my help center theme to use dynamic content?
To modify your help center theme to use dynamic content, start by accessing the Guide section in Zendesk. Click the Customize design icon in the sidebar, select the theme you want to edit, and open it. From the options menu, choose 'Edit Code'.
For example, to modify the footer, open the Footer template and insert your dynamic content item using the syntax{{dc 'item_name'}}. Save your changes and publish them to see the updated design. This allows your help center to display different content based on the user's selected language.
