ACP / Dashboard
===============
The dashboard shows an at-a-glance overview of your NodeBB, including
pageviews collated by time and day, and other interesting metrics such
as current active user count and user location.
System Control
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The "Reload", "Restart", and "Maintenance Mode" buttons allow you to
administer the running process of NodeBB.
- **Reload** - refreshes all stylesheets, js files, and templates.
Clears caches if there are any. The NodeBB server is kept running.
- **Restart** - Brings down the NodeBB server and starts it up again.
Refreshes all assets and clears all caches. A restart is recommended
if you have activated or deactivated plugins.
- **Maintenace Mode** - Brings you to the maintenance mode page,
allowing you to temporarily restrict access to your forum.
Updates
~~~~~~~
The updates section queries the NodeBB project for a new version of
NodeBB, and determines whether you are up-to-date. There is no
requirement to update NodeBB, although it is usually recommended in
order to obtain the latest features and bug fixes.
Notices
~~~~~~~
The notices allows NodeBB and various plugins to quickly determine if
action is required (e.g. if a restart is required).
