Settings

The Settings page combines your personal preferences with — for admins — system-wide controls. It’s at /settings and is always pinned to the bottom of the sidebar (right above the account button), so you can reach it from anywhere.

A two-tab page:

  • Preferences — visible to everyone.
  • Admin — visible only to admins.

Each tab uses collapsible cards. Click any card title to fold or unfold it.

Three sections, all personal to your account.

Toggle individual sidebar items off to declutter your sidebar. The list mirrors your sidebar exactly, grouped the same way (Content, Scheduling, Reporting, Admin, etc.).

  • A toggle marked with a small lock icon can’t be turned off — Settings itself is always visible.
  • A toggle that’s stuck on with a tooltip “Hidden by your administrator” means the item has been force-hidden globally for non-admins (see Navigation Overrides below). The item won’t appear in your sidebar regardless of your local toggle.
  • Click Reset in the card header to clear your local hides and start over.

Your choices are stored locally in your browser, so they don’t follow you to a different device.

Currently a placeholder. Theme choice lives in the sidebar footer (next to your avatar) and top bar (next to refresh) — not in this card. Light/dark only for now.

The full Account Settings form is embedded here as well as in the dialog you get from the avatar menu. See Account Settings for everything that’s in it.

Admins only. Two cards.

Force-hide sidebar items for all non-admin users. Use this to simplify the interface for end-users by removing pages they have no reason to visit.

The card lists every nav item that’s permission-gated and not locked. Toggle one off and it’s hidden for non-admins; the toggle in their personal Navigation card is forced on with a tooltip explaining the override.

A yellow Applies to all users badge sits in the card header as a constant reminder. When you have unsaved changes, a Save button appears next to the badge — your choices aren’t applied until you click it.

A grid of shortcut tiles linking to the most-used admin pages. Each tile is a hyperlink:

TileGoes toDoc
Display Profiles/settings/display-profilesDisplay Profiles
Player Software/settings/player-softwarePlayer Software
Users/usersAccess Management
Groups/groupsAccess Management
Fonts/fontsFonts
Reports/reportsReports
Audit Trail/auditAudit Log

These are pure shortcuts. Each destination already has its own item in the sidebar (assuming it’s not hidden); the grid is here so admins don’t have to hunt for them after using the navigation override controls above.

  • The Preferences tab is open to every signed-in user.
  • The Admin tab — and everything inside it — requires Admin (customer admin or OTS admin). If you’re not an admin, the Admin tab simply doesn’t render.
