#### Allow Users to set remote_self
-If you enable the `Allow Users to set remote_self` users can select Atom feeds from their contact list being their *remote self* in die advanced contact settings.
+If you enable the `Allow Users to set remote_self` users can select Atom feeds from their contact list being their *remote self* in the advanced contact settings.
Which means that postings by the remote self are automatically reposted by Friendica in their names.
+This feature can be used to let the user mirror e.g. blog postings into their Friendica postings.
+It is disabled by default, as it causes additional load on the server and may be misused to distribute SPAM.
+
As admin of the node you can also set this flag directly in the database.
Before doing so, you should be sure you know what you do and have a backup of the database.
If you wish, you can turn on strict certificate checking.
This will mean you cannot connect (at all) to self-signed SSL sites.
+#### Check upstream version
+
+If this option is enabled your Friendica node will check the upstream version once per day from the github repository.
+You can select if the stable version or the development version should be checked out.
+If there is a new version published, you will get notified in the admin panel summary page.

### Performance
### Worker
+This section allows you to configure the background process that is triggered by the `cron` job that was created during the installation.
+The process does check the available system resources before creating a new worker for a task.
+Because of this, it may happen that the maximum number of worker processes you allow will not be reached.
+
+If your server setup does not allow you to use the `proc_open` function of PHP, please disable it in this section.
+
+The tasks for the background process have priorities.
+To guarantee that important tasks are executed even though the system has a lot of work to do, it is useful to enable the *fastlane*.
+
+Should you not be able to run a cron job on your server, you can also activate the *frontend* worker.
+If you have done so, you can call `example.com/worker` (replace example.com with your actual domain name) on a regular basis from an external servie.
+This will then trigger the execution of the background process.

## Themes
The Themes section of the admin panel works similar to the Plugins section but let you control the themes on your Friendica node.
-Each theme has a dedicated suppage showing the current status, some information about the theme and a screen-shot of the Friendica interface using the theme.
+Each theme has a dedicated subpage showing the current status, some information about the theme and a screen-shot of the Friendica interface using the theme.
Should the theme offer special settings, admins can set a global default value here.
You can activate and deactivate themes on their dedicated sub-pages thus making them available for the users of the node.
Don't panic!
Friendica will not queue messages for all time but will sort out *dead* nodes automatically after a while and remove messages from the queue then.
+## Server Blocklist
+
+This page allows to block all communications (inbound and outbound) with a specific domain name.
+Each blocked domain entry requires a reason that will be displayed on the [friendica](/friendica) page.
+Matching is exact, blocking a domain doesn't block subdomains.
+
## Federation Statistics
The federation statistics page gives you a short summery of the nodes/servers/pods of the decentralized social network federation your node knows.
These numbers are not compleate and only contain nodes from networks Friendica federates directly with.
+## Delete Item
+
+Using this page an admin can delete postings and eventually associated discussion threads from their Friendica node.
+To do so, they need to know the GUID of the posting.
+This can be found on the `/display` page of the posting, it is the last part of the URL displayed in the browsers navigation bar.
+You can get to the `/display` page by following the *Link to source*.
+
## Plugin Features
Some of the addons you can install for your Friendica node have settings which have to be set by the admin.
