Dashboard
The dashboard is the first screen you see after logging in. Here's what's on it and how to get around the app.
The Home Screen
After logging in you land on the Dashboard at /dashboard. It has two main widgets:
Latest News
Shows the most recent announcements published by your organization — headlines, updates, and important notices. Click any post title to read the full text.
My Events
Shows upcoming events where you:
- Have an accepted RSVP
- Are assigned as a volunteer
- Are scheduled on a service plan
Each event card shows the event name, date, and time. Click an event to see its details.
The Sidebar (Navigation Menu)
The left-side panel is your main navigation. It shows only the modules your organization has turned on.
| Menu Item | What it opens |
|---|---|
| Dashboard | This home screen |
| Directory | Member and family list |
| Groups | Small groups |
| Events | Organization events and calendar |
| Songs | Song library |
| Service Flows | Worship service plans |
| Tournaments | Tournament registrations and brackets |
| Finance | Financial ledger (admin/finance only) |
| Settings | Organization configuration (admin only) |
At the bottom of the sidebar you may see a quick-action button depending on your role — for example Add Family or Bulk Upload.
Mobile Navigation
On a phone or tablet, the sidebar is hidden by default:
- Tap the ☰ menu icon in the top-left corner to open the navigation drawer.
- Tap any menu item to navigate.
- The drawer closes automatically when you select a page.
Your Avatar Menu
Click your profile avatar in the top-right corner to access:
- Profile — edit your name, phone, and password
- Switch Organization — move to a different organization
- Log Out — sign out of the app
Breadcrumbs and Back Navigation
Most pages show the current section name in the top bar. Use your browser's back button or the sidebar to return to a previous section.
Empty States
If a section shows a "nothing here yet" message, it means your organization hasn't added any data there. If you have the right permissions, you'll see an Add or Create button to get started.
