Admin panel

The admin panel is available to superusers on /admin, e.g. https://alex.ia.utwente.nl/admin/.

The most important tasks in the admin panel are creating organizations and locations. Almost all other tasks can be done by organization managers using the normal web interface.

Be aware the admin panel allows editing and deleting of almost all objects without extensive checks. Handle with care!

Organizations

Organizations can be created and edited using the admin panel by superusers.

• Name: Name of this organization.
• Is public: The organization is selectable in lists.
• Color: Color used in lists to distinguish this organization. Use a 6 digit hexadecimal color code, like FF0000 for red.

Note: Standard reservations are currently unused.

All other settings can be changed by the organization managers.

Locations

Also locations must be created and edited using the admin panel.

• Name: Name of this location.
• Is public: Currently unused.
• Prevent conflicting events: Alexia will prevent simultaneous events in this location.
• Color: Color used in the calendar view to distinguish this location. Use a 6 digit hexadecimal color code, like FF0000 for red.

Note: The Standard reservations are currently unused.

Users

Users can be promoted to super users in the admin panel. To promote a user, enable the Staff status and Superuser status permissions for the user.

You can also add and edit users here. It is also possible to set a password for users who are unable to authenticate using RADIUS. See also User authentication.
