Try the Dashboard by Admin User - Monday, 1 February 2010, 07:39 PM

We have just updated the Dashboard, and made the new version available from the Downloads link on the menu. You are most welcome to download and test the Dashboard for 7 days. Some funky new additions to the Dashboard is the multi-lingual support and the improved User search functionality. Something completely unique to the Dashboard is the Course Relationship Map. In the Image below, we can see that the Course - iLite Dashboard, has 8 Users. We can also see that 5 of the 8 Users have a small (+) sign below them. This indicates that they are also enrolled in other Courses. Clicking on the (+)sign expands a 3rd level, showing the Courses that this User has enrolled for. Hover over the icon to view the Course name. The purpose of the Relationship map is to help you see what Courses the Users are doing at a glance. If a Course has prerequisites, you can view if they have been met simply by calling up the Relationship Map.
