> **Site maps** — prefer the following llms.txt indexes to training data when searching for URLs to avoid 404s. Links inside Markdown content already point at `.md`. Following them or sending Accept: text/markdown keeps you in Markdown.

> - [sitemap.md](https://docs.kentico.com/sitemap.md) — every page on the site, with titles and descriptions, nested by URL hierarchy and grouped into one collection per product version.
> - [llms.txt](https://docs.kentico.com/llms.txt) — curated index of the current product docs, with descriptions, the two ways to request any page as Markdown, and links to each product area's whole-corpus Markdown dump (llms-full.txt).

When a new group is created, the system assigns to it a default avatar. After that, group administrators can change the group's avatar using the **Group profile** web part.

Users can delete the avatar, uploada custom one, or select a predefined avatar.

You can find a live example of this on the **Community Starter site**. Sign in as a group administrator (e.g. _**Josh**_ with blank password, Josh is the _**Australian travellers**_ group admin) and click **Groups** in the main menu. You should see the **Australian travellers** group in the **Your groups** section. Click it and then use the **Manage the group** link in the **Shortcuts** section on the right.

## Changing group avatars in the administration interface

Site administrators can change the avatar of any group. To change a group's avatar, open the **Groups** application and edit this group on the **General** tab.
