# Setting Up
**Hype** offers flexibility in managing access to website content for users. Choose between custom [**Sign In**](/hype-user-documentation/membership/sign-in-page.md), [**Sign Up**](/hype-user-documentation/membership/setting-up.md), [**User** **Account**](/hype-user-documentation/membership/sign-in-page.md)**,** and [**Membership**](/hype-user-documentation/membership/membership-page.md) **pages** for a personalized experience, or streamline the process by using the **Ghost Portal**. To fully leverage the membership features in **Hype**, users can opt to utilize the integrated Ghost Portal for streamlined access management, providing an out-of-the-box solution for sign in, sign up, subscribe, user account, and membership management. Alternatively, for those seeking a more tailored approach, custom pages for each of these functions can be created, offering flexibility to match your site's unique design and user experience requirements.
**To use Ghost Portal interface:**
* Go to **Settings > Portal settings** from the admin menu
* Go to **Look & feel** tab
* Toggle the **Show portal button** to the ON position
When activating the **Ghost Portal** interface by **showing portal button**, links (that built into the theme) located in the header, mobile menu, and other navigation elements of your site, which traditionally directed users to custom [**Sign In**](/hype-user-documentation/membership/sign-in-page.md) and [**Account**](/hype-user-documentation/membership/account-page.md) pages, will now trigger the [**Ghost Portal interface**](https://ghost.org/help/customize-portal/) instead.
**To use custom pages:**
* Go to **Settings > Portal settings** from the admin menu
* Go to **Look & feel** tab
* Toggle the **Show portal button** to the OFF position
**If you want to use custom pages for members feature**, you need to create the [**Sign In**](/hype-user-documentation/membership/sign-in-page.md), [**Sign Up**](/hype-user-documentation/membership/sign-up-page.md), [**User** **Account**](/hype-user-documentation/membership/account-page.md)**,** and [**Membership**](/hype-user-documentation/membership/membership-page.md) pages to avoid the **404 errors.**

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://highfivethemes.gitbook.io/hype-user-documentation/membership/setting-up.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
