The content within a dashboard is created by adding panels, and it is possible to add any number of panels to the dashboard.

Collaborate feed - The Collaborate feed panel allows you to show a collaborate activity feed from specific sites within an instance of Collaborate. You may use this in order to easily show users your latest activity feed from Collaborate - which users can click on and be directed to.

  • Panel - You can select a different panel from this drop-down menu.
  • Title - Enter the title of the panel. You can hide the title by selecting the Hide title checkbox.
  • Instance - This is where you select the instance that the feed will be pulled through from.
  • Site - This is where you select the site that the feed will be pulled through from. Please note that you must have a Collaborate site configured in the admin console to be able to do this and that this is for advanced users. 
    Finally, if you have multiple instances, then this will create a panel per instance; it will not merge the two.
  • Enable filter - Select the checkbox to enable the filter. The filter allows you to show only the feed of things you want from specific sites or specific content. 
  • Default filters - If you have enabled the filter, click Select to display the Default filters screen. From this screen, you can select one or more content types to filter by.
  • Display - Select content to be displayed, such as Avatar and Comments etc. Link to Collaborate site creates a call to action button on the bottom of the feed that will take you directly to the collaborate instance. 
  • Text for Link to Collaborate site - This will be the text that is displayed as a link to the Collaborate site call to action button.
  • No of items to display - This allows you to select the number of items you want to display.
  • Display in - Select whether you want to display panel on all devices, or just desktop/tablet.
  • Panel class - This field allows you to apply custom designs using CSS. This is for advanced users.
