SMASHDOCs Release Notes 2.17 - Admin UI
1General
Briefly, the Admin UI got a huge redesign, a bunch of new features, and is overall more clearly structured, thus easy to operate. So without further ado, let`s dive right in.
2Structured feature menu
2.1Features combined thematically
We have combined all features into thematically logical groups, so it got quite simple to turn on or off the needed functionality for the particular system. The feature-groups include:
●Login page
●Deselect basic options
●Set limits
●Projects
●Import
●Editor components
●Inline objects
●Export
2.2Search feature by name
If you happen to know the feature or at least the function's purpose, for instance, export, you can search it by its name.
2.3Bulk-options
We have also added a bunch of so-called bulk-options on the feature page and you now can:
●disable all features on the system
●upload all features to the current system as a JSON file
●download the list of features as a JSON file from the current system
3Updated paragraph decorators page
Apart from updating the paragraph decorators page visually by emphasising the essential buttons, as an add new paragraph decorator button, we also added a bunch of new features:
●Reset - delete all decorators, inlines, Xref and QuickStart Menus
●Select - select all or a few items to be able to proceed with further actions such as deletion or download of them all/those few.
●Delete - delete button gets activated once at least one item has been selected.
●Upload/download with decorators groups - including decorators group is now optional and you can turn it off any time.
4Duplicate and delete paragraph decorators
It is now possible to duplicate the specific paragraph decorator or to delete it completely. Thus, the respective buttons have been added to the paragraph decorator page:
5Upload section tags to the Admin UI
Sections tags can be added manually or a JSON file containing needed section tag configuration can be uploaded on the section tags page.
Once the section tags are created or uploaded on the specific system, they can easily be downloaded again as a JSON file and uploaded on another system. Quick and easy.
6Upload Quick Start Menu
Also, the Quick Start Menus can now not only be created manually but also uploaded/downloaded as a JSON file.
Furthermore, Quick Start Manu can now be shown everywhere in the editor, meaning both when writing a document from scratch, importing a Word file, or using the available sample by document creation. For this, the option "Show everywhere" should be activated for the desired Quick Start Menu.
7Confirm user via the user management
Users with the status "Invited" can now be manually confirmed on our internal user management page.
This is extremely helpful in case when the invited user can not find his confirmation email. Once the user is manually confirmed, the temporary password should be set.
SMASHDOCs automatically generates random sign combinations that can also be switched until a suitable or easier combination has been found.
Once the user successfully logs in to the system with the generated password, he can immediately change it to the desired one.
8Manually set password for the user
For already confirmed users a new password can also be set. This option helps out if the user tried to log in with the wrong password too many times and failed to reset the password as specified in the instructions afterward. If the login was unsuccessful too many times in the row, the system does not let such a user through, until the password is set manually for him and he logs in to the system with its help.
