Help > Admin > Control Panel

There are a number of admin scripts available by clicking on "Administration" from your User Menu or from within your Control Panel.

Admin Scripts

Configuration

Variables specific to your site like the Google Maps API key can be found here

Link Configuration

This script allows you to customize the Control Panel for all users. You can disable certain scripts, or move more popular scripts towards the top of the page. This can be a helpful tool for plugins that add links to your installation's Control Panel.

Enable Maps

By default, Google Maps are available to all installations of WikyBlog. All you have to do is enable them by getting a Google Maps API Key from Google. This script will guide you through that process.

Search Options

You can turn searching off to reduce the load on your server, or re-enable it if you change your mind.

User Statistics

A list of users, links to their Control Panel and options to disable, suspend, delete, or just flag as "nofollow".

htaccess

On Apache servers, you can use the .htaccess file generated by this script to get rid of index.php. (Some Apache servers have disable this ability)

Plugins And Dynamic Content

Details about the plugin scripts have been set apart.

Database

Database Information

Statistics of the databases in use by the software and a few maintenance options.

Database Backup

You can backup WikyBlog's database directly from the Control Panel without having to use phpMyAdmin or other MySQL utilities.

Run Scheduled Tasks

Purge the trash, check the MySQL tables, check the WikyBlog version and other functions are performed by the scheduled tasks script. It is automatically called approximately every 24 hours, but you may also run it manually.

Software Content

This area is just a list of links to content templates that are used by WikyBlog. For example the file "Register" is shown below the registration form and the "Registered" file is shown after users have registered a new name.

There are to useful variables available to these files: {{{username}}} and {{{pageowner}}}

Software

You'll be shown here if there's a new version of WikyBlog available.

Check Installation

You can use this script to check the file sizes of the local WikyBlog files versus the recorded size of the files when the distribution package was made. Files with incorrect sizes will be shown so you can update them.
