Title: MANUAL FOR ADMINISTRATORS

Manual for administrators

Administrators can maintain the database basically through the same web interface. They can log in to the admin page by clicking on the dotted image in the upper right-hand corner and typing in their name and password (the administration of administrator rights is in the hands of the IDLS coordinator). Through the admin link that is now viewable in the left column, administrators can add, change and delete entries (here called resources). In the text field, they can change the html text (first screen capture below) or the labels (second screen capture below). (Currently, only subcategories are usable as labels in Topic; in the new structure as described in section , entries will be labelled with a category and, if relevant, a subcategory in Topic.)

Administrators can also add, change or delete countries or topics on the same page.  

Administrators must take care to add to each entry the date of entry or last change, initials of the administrator and/or country correspondent (depending on whether the administrator simply inputs the information from a country correspondent, or whether he adds data or edits the text himself), and a link to the disclaimer.
