Abstract

Congratulations! Your HUBzero software is installed. Now what? Each new hub requires some configuration and customization, and once the hub is online and open to users, it requires some care and feeding. For example, you may configure your hub so that new content must be approved before it appears on the site. This tutorial will show you how to configure such options, and how to approve content, manage the calendar, respond to support tickets, handle abuse reports, and so forth.

This tutorial will address the following topics:

- Content Customization (article pages, URLs, menu structure)
- Home Page Customization (modules, news/announcements, banner)
- Publishing New Resources (seminars, teaching materials, courses)
- Groups and Collaboration (creating groups, inviting users, group collaboration tools, group customization)
- Administrative Tasks (User roles, events, knowledge base, parameters, user proxy-creation)
- Day-to-day Management (approving resources, handling abuse reports, support tickets, questions/answers, wish lists)
