Roundware Admin

Roundware uses the Django Admin with some customizations as the core method for the setup and administration of Roundware projects. We use the django-admin-bootstrapped app to update the feel and flexibility of the admin.

The base Roundware install comes with a test project setup and ready to test the installation and with which to experiment.

This section will explain the basic Admin features and how to create and manage a customized Roundware project to suit your needs. The Admin home screen displays all the available models, but this guide will focus on the primary ones.

Refer to the Setup documentation for more info on the individual fields in each model.

General Admin Tips

Items in BOLD are required fields.

Navigation

The Admin employs a basic breadcrumb-type navigation system at the top of each screen. Each section is a link that takes you back to the specified previous location within the Admin.

List Filters

Many of the Admin list views have filtering capabilities, accessible via a dropdown in the upper right of the view.

Localized Strings

Localized strings can be added directly from other model admin screens. Look for the green plus:

Clicking the green plus opens another window where a new localized string can be created and assigned to one of the available languages in the installation.
