+title: 'Custom App'
+tileExcerpt: 'This is the default card content for a custom app'
+---
+
+You're seeing the default template content for a custom app. This content shows when Stackspin cannot find a markdown file that matches the name of the app.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+Open your Dashboard repository (https://open.greenhost.net/stackspin/dashboard) and check the `frontend/custom` folder, there should be two sub-directories: `assets` (for the logos) and `markdown` (for the app description and modal window content). There should be a markdown `'md` file and a vector`.svg` image file for your app, and they should be named like your app's slug, something like `markdown/gitlab.md` and `assets/gitlab.svg`. (If you followed the documentation and added `ext-` in front of your slugs, that's fine, we check for that.)
+
+If the files aren't there, do please add them. For reference on Markdown formatting, you can follow the `default.md` structure (basically we need a `title` and an `excerpt` in the frontmatter, and the rest of the file can be whatever you like it to be).
+
+If the files are there and are not being picked up by your Stackspin instance, please check out the Dashboard repository (https://open.greenhost.net/stackspin/dashboard) for help.
+
+For more information on how to fix this, check the External Apps chapter of the Documentation:https://docs.stackspin.net/en/v2/system_administration/external-app.html.
