Dashboard Settings
Make your Dashboard your own with the dashboard customization settings!
What are Dashboard Settings?
The dashboard on HIVO gives you a quick overview of key features and important information. But did you know you can customize the look and content of this dashboard to fit your needs? Admin users can complete all customization through the "Dashboard Settings" feature in the Client Profile.
How to Access Dashboard Settings?
Navigate to Client Profile => Settings => Dashboard Settings

Admin users can also access via Profile => Manage Dashboard.

Assigning Dashboards to Users/Groups
Once you have clicked into Dashboard Settings you will see the following screen:

In the "Users/Groups" section, you can specify which HIVO Users or User Groups will see a particular fullscreen dashboard.

Users assigned to multiple dashboards will see the one with the highest level of specificity first.
Individual user assignments take priority over group assignments, which take priority over applying the dashboard to everyone.
Users not assigned to any fullscreen dashboard will see the default non-fullscreen dashboard.
Select "Apply to All Users" if you want everyone to see this dashboard.

Search Bar Configuration
The "Search Bar" section lets you choose between using the Library search bar or the Collection search bar for the fullscreen dashboard.
If a user lacks Library access, the Collection search bar will be displayed.
If they have access to neither, the default non-fullscreen dashboard will be shown.

Branding Your Dashboard
Logo: Upload a logo (light colors recommended) in the "Branding" section. If no logo is uploaded, the default HIVO logo will be used.
Background Image(s): Select one or more high-resolution images to use as the dashboard background. Selecting multiple images will result in a random selection upon viewing the dashboard.
Background Color: Define a backup background color in case no background image is set or if it fails to load.

Description
Enter a description that will appear at the top of the dashboard. (Example: "Welcome to the HIVO Brand Portal")

Adding Quick Links
The "Quick Links" section allows you to create links to external websites.
Include a label and URL for each link.
Optionally, you can upload a thumbnail image for each link.
Quick Links to resources users don't have view access to will be hidden, excluding external websites.

Adding Collections
In the "Collections" section, you can include specific collections within the dashboard.
Optionally, use the "Alt. Collection Thumbnail" field to set a custom thumbnail for each collection within this dashboard.
Adding Tags
List relevant tags (e.g., "surfing," "brand," "logo") to categorize your dashboard content.
Adding Faces
The "Faces" section allows you to display specific faces within the dashboard.
Example: Select the faces you want to include (e.g., "David," "Jane Smith," "Ben").
Adding Brands
In the "Brands" section, you can showcase specific brands within the dashboard.
Example: Select the brands you want to display (e.g., "HIVO Brand Guidelines")
Once you've completed your customizations, click the "SUBMIT" button to save your new dashboard.
By creating specific dashboards with relevant functionalities and branding elements, Admins can provide a branded working interface, tailored to each specific user group.
