Administration

If you have admin rights you can navigate to the Admin Area by clicking on "Administration" in the navbar, left to your user name.

User Management

On this page you will be able to add new users to the portal or edit existing users.
If you create a new user and have the email settings configured this user will receive an email to verify his or her email address.
Please note: If a user does not confirm their email address they will not be able to use the "Forgot your password?" functionality.

Below the create user button you will find a list of existing users in the portal. In the most right column you will find the following buttons:

• Star: This star is used for adjusting the roles of a user. You can move a role from the available roles to the assigned role box by selecting the role in the list and then pressing "Add role". In the same way you can remove a role by selecting the role in the assigned roles list and click "Remove role".
• Clip: By pressing this button you can refresh the security stamp of a user. This will sign out a signed in user. This is usefull if an account gets hijacked and you want to sign out the attacker after changing the password.
• Paper plane: By pressing this button you can confirm the email address of a user. This is useful if a user did not confirm their email address and forgot their password.
• Trash bin: By clicking this button you can delete a user.

Roles

The following roles are available for users:

• Administrator: Allows a user to access the Administration area.

Project Management

To be able to extend GoNorth to allow multiple projects in parallel on which different users are working in the future I've implemented projects. At the moment all objects will be associated to the current default project. This means you have to have at least one default project at any time to be able to work with GoNorth.

After creating a project you will see a list of projects. The current default project will be printed in bold. In the most right column you will find the following buttons:

• Pencil: Allows you to edit a project
• Trash bin: Allows you to delete a project. Please note: You will only be able to delete empty projects.

Encrypt value

On this page you can encrypt values for the config file. Simply enter your value in the config value textbox and press encrypt. Afterwards you can copy your encrypted value from the encrypted config value box into your config file.

Setup DB

If you click on this page GoNorth will create all missing collections in the MongoDB. This is not really required since your MongoDB will create the collections once you access them as well.
But GoNorth will also create some indices in the MongoDB to speed up access. This will increase the performance on the timeline page by quite a bit.
