- Administration guide
- ====================
-
- So, you have a working Mastodon instance... now what?
-
- ## Turning into an admin
-
- The following rake task:
-
- rails mastodon:make_admin USERNAME=alice
-
- Would turn the local user "alice" into an admin.
-
- ## Administration web interface
-
- A user that is designated as `admin = TRUE` in the database is able to access a suite of administration tools:
-
- * View, edit, silence, or suspend users - https://yourmastodon.instance/admin/accounts
- * View PubSubHubbub subscriptions - https://yourmastodon.instance/admin/pubsubhubbub
- * View domain blocks - https://yourmastodon.instance/admin/domain_blocks
- * Sidekiq dashboard - https://yourmastodon.instance/sidekiq
- * PGHero dashboard for PostgreSQL - https://yourmastodon.instance/pghero
- * Edit site settings - https://yourmastodon.instance/admin/settings
-
- ## Site settings
-
- Your site settings are stored in the `settings` database table, and editable through the admin interface at https://yourmastodon.instance/admin/settings.
-
- You are able to set the following settings:
-
- - Site title
- - Contact username
- - Contact email
- - Site description
- - Site extended description
-
- You may wish to use the extended description (shown at https://yourmastodon.instance/about/more ) to display content guidelines or a user agreement (see https://mastodon.social/about/more for an example).
