The KnowledgeTree Dashboard

Setting Up and Managing KnowledgeTree > The KnowledgeTree Dashboard


KnowledgeTree's Web-interface opens at the dashboard.

 

 

Notes:

KnowledgeTree Commercial dashlets display after you have installed your KnowledgeTree Commercial on-premise license (Trial or Subscription). KnowledgeTreeLive account holders do not need to install a license.

 

You must enable the Document Jump plugin to allow users to move the Web interface dashlets to custom positions.

 

KnowledgeTree uses the currently logged in user's credentials to determine the information that displays on the Dashboard. For example, some dashlets are only visible to the administrator, providing information on system specific tasks, resources, and statistics.

 

 

Dashlets

Welcome ... - an editable welcome message.

 

Your Checked-out Documents - a list of documents checked out by the currently logged on user, and a reminder to check these documents back in to the system to make them available to other users for editing. Commercial Editions Only

Note: This dashlet displays only when you have documents checked out.

To permanently display this dashlet, change the following setting to 'True'

in System Configuration - General Settings - Dashboard; then,

click Save Config Settings.

 

Go to Document ID - Use this dashlet to enter a document id; then, go directly to that document in the repository. Commercial Editions Only

License - displays only when you have installed KnowledgeTree Commercial, and you either have no license installed, or your  license has expired. Commercial Editions Only

Note: Not applicable for KnowledgeTreeLive - the hosted, SaaS version of KnowledgeTree Commercial on-premise.

 

Orphaned Folders - lists any folders that you won't be allowed to navigate to through the folder structure because you do not have view permissions on the parent folder. You can use the orphaned folder link to go directly to the folder, but you won't be able to access any other folders at this location.

 

RSS Feeds - lists your existing RSS Feeds on external content (blogs, external websites, etc.) and displays  a full view of your RSS feeds on internal content, plus a link to the RSS Feeds management interface.

WebDAV Connection Information - instructions for connecting to the WebDAV server.

 

System Folder Utilization - lists system folders used by KnowledgeTree, the path to the folder, the space used by each folder. A 'cleanup' link adjacent to each folder clears the tmp, cache, and log directories, and may be used when the file size of temporary files affect system performance.

KnowledgeTree Commercial on-premise. View details on the KnowledgeTree Wiki.

Indexing Dashlets moved to Administration in KnowledgeTree 3.6.1

Note: From KnowledgeTree 3.6.1, Indexing related reports, statistics, and actions that were provided through the following dashlets are now accessed in Administration - Search and Indexing:

 

Document Indexer Statistics - this dashlet provided information on the status of document indexing; a diagnostic function to check that the correct version of documents are indexed, to re-schedule indexing if necessary, to view the number of documents indexed and the number of documents still in the indexing queue, and to see whether there was any error with the Indexer. From KnowledgeTree 3.6.1, access this information in Administration - Search and Indexing - Document Indexer Statistics.
