Admin Tools — UI/Login Records Actions

TraCorp LMS Quick Reference Guide

Audience: Main Admin, Sub Admin

Overview

The Admin Tools tab allows customization of portions of the LMS and the completion of specific actions. This QRG covers updating images for the user interface and deleting login records.

Enabled Permissions Required to Complete the Following Steps

• Admin Tools > Change Header Image (Sub Admin)
• Admin Tools > Change Background Image (Sub Admin)
• Admin Tools > Prune Login Records (Sub Admin)

Note: Sub Admin without access to complete these steps should review Permissions with a Main Admin. User Group Admin do not have access to these settings.

Steps to Change LMS Header Image

The image file must be created before completing these steps. The header is approximately 250 pixels tall by 700 pixels wide, and the LMS automatically adjusts its height to match the image, which may cause menus to be pushed off the screen.

1.      From Admin Navigation, click Admin Tools.

2.      Click Change Header Image.

3.      Click Choose File.

4.      Select the file from the folder structure.

5.      Click Upload.

Steps to Change LMS Background Image for Students

Background Images display in the student interface behind the dashboard and content views. An image file must be created prior to completing these steps. Images should be 1920 x 1080 for optimal display quality. Note: Because text is overlaid on the image, avoid using dark or visually busy images that reduce readability.

1.      From Admin Navigation, click Admin Tools.

2.      Click Change Background Image.

3.      Click a Category.

4.      Click Add Image.

5.      Click Choose File.

6.      Select the file from the folder structure.

7.      Click the Active check box to make the image active.

8.      Click Upload.

The image file may also be edited or deleted. Note: Multiple Images can be added to each category, and these categories can be renamed. Background images will rotate through the categories if all images and categories are active.

Steps to Prune Login Records

This sets a cutoff date to prune old login records to improve the performance of login reports.

1. From Admin Navigation, click Admin Tools.
2. Click Prune Login Records.
3. Select a Date. Records older than the date you select will be deleted.
4. Click Submit.

Best Practices

Background Images can be added, activated, and deactivated. These are used to change with the season, to highlight relevant events, or provide additional visual interest to the interface all year round.
