LESSON ONE:  HOW TO LOG ON TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE MENU

 

Overview:  The Summer Teams Database has a private, administrative interface as well as the public portion of the database that all of the viewers see.  This lesson will guide you through the log in process so that you can access the administrative menu.

 

1.  From the Main Menu of the website (www.baseballnebraska.com), click on "Teams".  This will take you to the Summer Teams Database Page.  Using the Database Menu along the left side of the Database Main Page, click on "Administration."

 
2.  This will take you to the Administrative Login screen.  Enter the Username and Password that have been provided to you. 

 

3.  After you log on, you will arrive at the Administrative Menu screen.  You can ignore all of the advertising on the right-hand portion of the screen. Everything that you will be working on is in the red menu. You can also ignore the "Other Services" portion of the Admin Menu.  So basically, everything you need is under Main Admin, Team Setup and Miscellaneous.

A quick word about moving back and forth between the Admin Menu and the public side of the website, which we'll just call "the Website."  After you add or modify information using features on the Admin Menu, you will want to exit Admin and go back to the Website to see how it looks.  To do so, just click on the green "Exit Admin" link.  Doing so allows you to return to Admin by just clicking on the red "Administration" link without having to go through the log in process.  If on the other hand, you were to exit Admin by clicking on the red Logout link, you would have to go through the log in process to re-enter Admin from the Website. 

At this point, you can change your Administrative Password if you want to by using the "Admin Password" link under Main Admin.  I do not have a record of your passwords.  If you forget yours, just let me know, and I can re-set it to a generic password.
