Help:Admin Dashboard

What Is It?
Admin Dashboard was developed to create a contained, centralized space that highlights the most important tools and give admins a better understanding of how best to build their wiki. Special:SpecialPages was built into it to make Admin Dashboard the go to place for admins and founders to control and monitor their wiki.

The Admin Dashboard is a feature on all wikis. It can be found through "Admin" in the universal toolbar on the wikis that you have founded or are an admin on.

Access
The Admin Dashboard can be found in the universal Toolbar by clicking 'Admin'. Once you are on Admin Dashboard there are a few access points to exit to various areas on your wiki:
 * Wiki Nav links out to numerous places within your wiki depending on the navigation
 * The wordmark takes you to the main page of your wiki
 * The help link takes you to Help pages.

How It Works
Basic admin tools live on the "general" tab, under 3 sections:


 * Wiki: Theme Designer, Recent Changes, Top Navigation, Wiki Features and Layout Builder (if you have it enabled).


 * Community: User List, User Rights, Community Corner, Help.


 * Content: All Categories, Add a Page, Add a Photo, Add a Blog Post, Multiple Photo Upload.

The above tools will no longer live in Special:SpecialPages, as not to be redundant.
 * The rest of Special:SpecialPages lives on the "advanced" tab.
 * If you go to a wiki that you are not an admin of you will see Special:SpecialPages in its old format.
 * Admin specific tools on Special:SpecialPages are no longer be bold.
 * There are specific, excluded Special:SpecialPages that will not open within the admin dashboard skin.
