What is Administer?

Administer is a modular and open admin framework.

The reason that Administer exists is simplicity and modularity, things which are generally not common in the admin panel space. Have you ever installed a new admin panel and then noticed half of your MessagingService quota is now used up? Is it too hard to add basic commands and functionalities? If you answered yes to any of those, Administer is the perfect solution for you. If you are looking for a full-featured admin panel with modular apps and in-panel configuration, there is no better solution on the market than Administer.

We also follow FOSS ideology that everything should be in your control. Don’t trust our apps? Make your own. Want your own AOS instance to host apps? You can set one up in 5 minutes. Want to work Administer and change it or contribute to Core? The GNU AGPL 3.0 license makes that easy. We never compromise security for open-source and Administer remains one of the most secure panels available with frequent extensive testing.

Administer is and will always be free. No exceptions. Administer and most first-party apps are entirely free to use and are open-source under the GPL-3.0 license. If you would rather use a free, GUI-based administration system than licensing one or developing one for your own game, Administer is also perfect for you.

Features

In-panel rank configuration: Add, remove, and edit admin ranks and users right from within the panel. When you save a rank, Administer automatically updates any existing admins, so new ones will get a panel and removed admins will lose it without needing to rejoin.
In-panel settings: You can directly control everything Administer needs from right inside of the panel allowing for a zero-code configuration process.
App Marketplace: Unlike other panels, you only get what you need with Administer. Explore a Marketplace with apps for every use case (and more coming soon) and remove anything you don’t need.
Open API: Quickly hook into Administer’s core API to develop apps using official features and add yourself to the Marketplace

Getting Started

All you have to do is download the new model (linked below), and run the game!

Installation

See the full guide on the docs website.

  • Get the model here
  • Insert it into ServerScriptService
  • Enable HttpService and Studio APIs
  • Join the game and complete the setup wizard
  • Setup complete! Enjoy using Administer.

Make an app

Please visit the official API guide.

Host AOS Yourself

If you would like to learn how to setup an AOS instance to host your own apps, you should see our Recommended Specs for LXC containers and the Installation Guide.

If you just want to host one high-quality app, you can also apply to be on the official AOS Server by simply joining our server and making a post in marketplace.


After you install Administer, you should go to the Marketplace as soon as possible to install new apps. For simplicity, only Player Management is installed by default. All you need to do in order to acquire new apps is go to the Marketplace, click “Apps”, find the app you want, click “Get”, then the download icon. Apps will automatically load into your game, but in order for client UIs to be loaded, you must rejoin.

We are actively working on even more official marketplace apps which will be releasing over the coming months. If you have any suggestions or would like us to prioritize any in specific, please let us know in the replies!

Next, you need to add your staff as admins. To do this, you can use our simple in-panel rank editor. Simply go to Admins, click “Add new..”, and follow the steps.

For more advanced guides and video tutorials (soon!) please visit the documentation wiki.

Contributions & Reports

We are more than welcome to contributions for any Administer related repository (Core, AOS, Documentation, Apps, etc). Contributions are accepted at our discretion and should be useful features that anybody can benefit from, not something that Apps can solve. If you are looking to publish your app to the official AOS instances, please join our Community Server and visit the marketplace channel.

Localization Issues: We have crowdsourced translations with Weblate. You can use the portal here: https://translate.admsoftware.org
Translations are verified and published every release.

We proudly have an active staff team and quick communication with developers and staff so tickets should be replied to in under 12 hours. If you have a suggestion, report, or something nice to say, you can also use this thread instead! I strongly believe in actively communicating with your users because they are the ones who control your success, so we have daily development updates too to open the window for feedback.

Administer 2 already exists and has 1:1 branding to this. Do you have permission to be posting this resource? If not, this is plagiarism.

If your in the dc server, pyx mentioned that ownership has changed.

Okay then, just making sure. There wasn’t any effort in explaining this, so it seemed like a blatant copy.

Yes, ownership changed and I’m not doing anything with upstream anymore. I archived my own versions due to disagreements in open source policies on my GitHub profile but otherwise I’m unassociated with everything going forward..

Sadly the Model has been moderated by Roblox for „Misusing their Systems“ I’ll try to appeal the model which I already did, but Roblox AI is not intelligent enough to understand, so I’ll need to find a Roblox Administrator to approve the model.

Meanwhile you can download administer as a Roblox Model in our Discord Server.

Actually it is intelligent. You should read this.

Yes. I did, but I can’t just remove the insertion of other peoples assets, because this literally the core function of administer. It is an admin panel with nothing but installable applications.

Iam still communicating with the Roblox Staff and will do everything to get the model on the Marketplace.

So for everyone:

The newest version is available on our Discord Server.

Even though it is not available on the Marketplace we still provide a direct download from the Discord Server.
