You can make a number of settings on the configuration page of the ELO Web Client.

You can reach the configuration via User menu [your name] > Configuration.

Categories

The settings on the configuration page are divided into categories. When you open a category, you see the settings of the selected category. The settings are grouped by topic within the category.

You will find an i with additional information next to each setting.

Configuration sets

The different settings are separated into groups. These groups are called Configuration sets.

As the main ELO administrator, you have the right to manage all configuration sets. You can assign configuration sets to or remove them from users and option groups.

Information: Each user only sees the settings that were assigned to them via the configuration sets. Only you will see the sets themselves.

The following configuration sets exist:

• Red circle: Refers to administrative settings that have a significant impact. This set should be restricted to administrators.
• Blue circle: Refers to the settings that have a significant impact.
• Green circle: Refers to settings that do not have a significant impact.

Next to each setting, you will see what set they belong to.

Assigning configuration sets

To assign a user or group a configuration set, proceed as follows:

1. Click Select user and select the user or the group.

2. Click the Configuration sets category and select the desired configuration sets.

The changes are saved automatically.

Who do these settings apply for?

First, you need to select who you want to change the settings for. The following modes are available:

My configuration: All settings only apply to your own account. The configuration opens in this mode.

Create configuration for user/group: The settings apply for a certain user or users in an option group. To select this mode, click the Select user button and choose a user or an option group.

Create global configuration: The settings apply for all users. To select this mode, click the Select user button and choose Everyone.

Warning: When you have changed a setting, leave the check box to the far left selected. If you clear the check box, the ELO Web Client restores the default settings.

Apply ribbon settings

This function enables you to apply the functions of the ribbon for another user or another option group.

1. Click Select user and select the user or the group you want to apply the ribbon settings for.

2. Click Apply ribbon settings. Here, select the user or group whose ribbon settings you want to apply.

The functions on the ribbon of the two users/groups are now identical.

Inheritance hierarchy of the settings

The ELO Web Client verifies which settings apply for which user at three levels. If there is an individual setting for a user, ELO uses this setting. If there are no individual settings for a user, the ELO Web Client checks whether the user is a member of an option group. If this is the case, the settings of the option group apply. The default values apply if no settings have been configured.

Individual settings of the users: This item only appears if you create a configuration for an option group. Use the Remove individual settings button to make sure that all users of an option group have indeed been assigned the same settings.

Please note: The Remove individual settings action is required if the members of an option group have previously had access to certain settings. If you now remove a configuration set from an option group, this option group has fewer settings to choose from. Changes made up to this point must be overwritten once.
