Administer // Modern & Modular free admin system [1.2]

Hello! I just checked out administer and I was going to ask if I could help! I could help upgrade the GUI possibly and give you ideas for administer!

If you have a lot of ideas you’d like to give me then you can reach out directly through discord (@pyxfloof)!

Am I able to help with the GUI maybe and maybe help script a bit?

If you’d like to help then please reach out on there, this thread isn’t the place for that sorta stuff

1.2 out now!

1.2 is a major version with a lot of updates and improvements to level up Administer once again.

Development isn’t free! If you love using Administer (or just want to give back to the open-source community), please donate to me to help ensure Administer has a bright future with new apps and lots of features.

Improvements

  • Revamped the rank editor to use the standard creator flow
  • Marketplace search has been revamped with autocomplete, tag searching, autocorrection, and more!
  • New app launcher design
  • Some new icons

Fixes

  • Fixed an issue which would cause Administer to not boot the first time you’d start it
  • Fixed reflections on the app launcher
  • Fixed an issue which caused the main frame to be visible for half a second when launched
  • Removed various forgotten print statements
  • Small animation tweaks
  • Fixed various other crashes and user-created errors

All of the media for the changes are located in the Discord server.

Thanks once again for your continued support and enjoy these changes!

can you make a test place for users?

That’s a good idea, I’ll work on it tomorrow. Has been a suggestion in the past but if there’s demand I’ll do it.

Great news! (cc @LeoBeomkl)

Just made my test game public and enabled admin for everybody. Should work fine, let me know if you have any issues. It’ll run whatever the latest published version of my own test build is so it might be unstable compared to the live version.

Version 1.2.1 pushed. Nothing big at all so no formal logs but the settings module has been fixed. Prepping to rewrite that hopefully soon so we don’t have to deal with these issues.

Seems like administer version is out of date in the game

Sorry, forgot to publish when I pushed 1.2.1. Eventually we’ll move to a more stable version system but for now I’ll push to the game when I get the chance.

No problem. By the way, would be fun if you could uncopylock the game so user could download and edit it a bit before diving into actually adding administer to the their game.

Thanks for the idea, don’t see it happening for that game in specific though because it’s my test game and it has a lot of extra crap in the place file which isn’t just latest Administer. I’ll keep it in mind for the future but it’s not something I’m doing for the time being.

1.2.2 is out!

1.2.2 doesn’t add anything new but has the following fixes and tweaks:

  • way quicker admin checking logic (RanksV2)
  • fixes the ability to have a group added more than once
  • fixes admin page logic (you should all have access to plrmgmt and rankmgmt again, sorry!)

These changes are all very worthwhile and I recommend you all update ASAP. Please note bootup will take longer on the first boot (we recommend you do it in studio) depending on how many ranks you have.

If you have any issues with the ranks system after these updates please feel free to tell us in our Discord server. Thanks!

While the panel looks good, I don’t see why we would use this over any other admin panel on the marketplace.

The organisation for this admin panel is quite bad ( please clean that up )

Could you please explain what you mean by this? Is it hard to reach specific functions?

Which one would your rather see in your game?

Understood. Eventually I do plan to move to a more modular system for core APIs (see the Modules directory) but it’ll be a more gradual rework over the next few versions because I am just one person doing all of the work.

The Settings overhaul will be the first leap to the modular future but for now I’ve noted down your feedback but unfortunately the answer is “it’s coming eventually” and I don’t have a specific timeframe.
