The Admin Dashboard is the central administrative hub of your Making Music Platform. It lists all the pages on your site (including public, members only, administrative and database pages) and is the best starting point whenever you need to find a page.
Webmasters and Data Administrators can reach the Admin Dashboard by clicking the small ‘Admin’ link in the top-right corner of any page on your Platform.
TIP: Webmasters will be able to see the whole Admin Dashboard, whereas Data Administrators will only be able to see links to the areas over which they have admin permissions. For more information on Data Administrator access and admin permissions, please see our Member Logins help guide.
Navigating the Admin Dashboard
Th Admin Dashboard table lists all of the administrative areas which are currently enabled in your Making Music Platform.
The Admin Dashboard has three columns:
- The Public/Member Pages column – this lists all public and member-only pages in your site.
- The Admin Pages column – this lists admin-only pages in your site. These pages are the best starting point for any administrative tasks you need to carry out.
- The Database Tables column – the pages in this column display information directly from your website’s database.
If you need to make changes to an area of your site, the best place to start is usually on the Public/Member Pages. If you need to carry out an administrative task, look at the Admin Pages. And if neither of those areas offer the admin capabilities that you need, you can update your Platform’s database directly via the Database Tables.
Making Music Platform account status and details
At the top of your Admin Dashboard you’ll find several links for administrating your Making Music Platform account.
By clicking these links you can view how much server space your Platform has remaining and access the Platform help guides.
