ADMINISTERING AN OBIKI SITE

Beyond the management of individual pages, Obiki provides a series of tools to help control other aspects of the site. These are contained within the Admin interface.

Using the Admin interface, you can determine the appearance of the site, set individual users' rights, create and set permissions for groups, and create templates for online forms, surveys, and documents.

To start administering the site click the Admin link next to the Logout link {in the upper right corner of the site}. This opens the admin menu.
