I want it MY way!
Yeah, yeah. We've heard you. All of you. You want your own, customized, slice of DIA heaven. You loathe having to share you preferences with others in your office.
Sharing is not caring in your book. Instead you have a rugged sense of individualism. We know. You are a special and unique snowflake.
Well, we listened. Not only did we listen (and listen and listen and listen) but we did something about it. Salsa is about you. All about you. You and your needs. We can wait for our needs until our Guacamole release is ready.
Right out of the browser
Salsa saves your preferences. These are not your organization's preferences but yours and yours alone. You want too see how many supporters you have everytime you login? No problem: add that report to your dashboard.
Suzy Creamcheese in the campaigns department will not see it unless she adds it to her dashboard. And custom reports you built instead of us -- you and Suzy can dashboard it just like any other.
Whats's a Dashboard?
A dashboard is your own customizable canvas for you to add, move and remove reports, notes and other nooks and crannies. That page you see after you login? That is your main dashboard.
Each tab has a dashboard. We've prepopulated the dashboards with our own ideas, but you can be the proverbial bull in a china shop and mess up all of our thought and caring.
It's fine. Destroy it. Click the white X in the upper left corner and watch your chosen modules shrink away into oblivion. Or go ahead and clutter up our Zen space by clicking on the plus symbol in the mid-upper-left-kinda spot of the page. (You can get the defaults back with "Revert")
This click will reveal all of the modules you can add to your dashboard. Need to get your feng shui alright? Click, and hold the title bar of the modules and then drag them all over the page. Whooo hoooo! Make a sci-fi type sound while you do it. It'll add to the ambiance and further convince anyone in earshot that you should spend a relaxing weekend in St. Elizabeths.
Take things to the next level. Create an account for your ED/Fundraising Director/General Bigshot type. Now log into their account and create a custom dashboard for them. The Bigshot view of the organization. This might free you from the bondage of some of the more tedious aspects of your job (such as communicating reporting info) and allow for more time enjoying episodes of “peep show” on YouTube.
