Dashboard

The dashboard page is the hub of the OpenAdmin interface and provides the overview of the current server performance and usage.

For administrator accounts, the dashboard also displays a quick summary bar with counts for Nodes, Containers, Users, Domains, Websites, Packages, and Emails (each showing current usage against the license's limit, if any). Reseller accounts instead see their own OpenPanel Accounts and Disk Space Used usage against the limits set by the administrator.

The dashboard page contains widgets:

User Activity widget: Displays real-time combined activity log of all OpenPanel users.
Latest News widget: Displays blog articles from the OpenPanel blog.
System Information widget: Displays Information about your server configuration: Hostname, IPv4 address, OS, OpenPanel version, Server Time, Kernel, CPU type, Uptime, Number of Running Processes and available Package Updates.
Resource Usage widget: Displays a CPU % and RAM % chart for the last hour, with a link to view the full resource usage history.

Found a Bug

By default, every page in both the OpenPanel and OpenAdmin UIs includes a "Found a bug? Let us know" link at the bottom. This link allows users to report issues directly to our GitHub Issues page and includes basic information to help reproduce the problem.

For the OpenPanel UI, administrators can disable this link by going to Settings > OpenPanel Settings and toggling off the "Display link to report bugs" option.
