On the front page of the admin panel you will see a summary of information about your node.
These information include the amount of messages currently being processed in the queues.
-The first number is the number of messages being actively sent.
-This number should decrease quickly.
-The second is the messages which could for various reasons not being delivered.
+The first number is the number of messages which could not been delivered for various reasons.
They will be resend later.
You can have a quick glance into that second queus in the "Inspect Queue" section of the admin panel.
-If you have activated the background workers, there is a third number representing the count of jobs queued for the workers.
+The second number represents the current number of jobs for the background workers.
These worker tasks are prioritised and are done accordingly.
Then you get an overview of the accounts on your node, which can be moderated in the "Users" section of the panel.
Set the content for the site banner.
The default logo is the Friendica logo and name.
-You may wish to provide HTML/CSS to style and/or position this content, as it may not be themed by default.

#### Language
During testing we discovered that since these registrations were automatic, the "Full Name" field was often set to just an account name with no space between first and last name.
If you would like to support people with only one name as their full name, you may change this setting to true.
Default is false.

#### OpenID
By default, OpenID may be used for both registration and logins.
These will still require approval if the registration policy is set to *require approval*
You may prohibit logged in users from creating additional accounts by setting *block multible registrations* to true.
Default is false.

### File upload
#### Maximum Image Size
This configures the URL to update the global directory, and is supplied in the default configuration.
The undocumented part is that if this is not set, the global directory is completely unavailable to the application.
-This allows a private community to be completely isolated from the global network.

#### Force Publish
(Wildcard support on Windows platforms requires PHP5.3).
By default, any (valid) email address is allowed in registrations.
-#### Allow Users to set remote_self
+#### 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.
Which means that postings by the remote self are automatically reposted by Friendica in their names.
Default is 60 seconds.
Set to 0 for unlimited (not recommended).
-#### UTF-8 Regular Expressions
-
-During registrations, full names are checked using UTF-8 regular expressions.
-This requires PHP to have been compiled with a special setting to allow UTF-8 expressions.
-If you are completely unable to register accounts, set no_utf to true.
-The default is set to false (meaning UTF8 regular expressions are supported and working).

#### Verify SSL Certitificates
By default Friendica allows SSL communication between websites that have "self-signed" SSL certificates.
For the widest compatibility with browsers and other networks we do not recommend using self-signed certificates, but we will not prevent you from using them.
SSL encrypts all the data transmitted between sites (and to your browser).
This allows you to have completely encrypted communications, and also protect your login session from hijacking.
-Self-signed certificates can be generated for free, without paying top-dollar for a website SSL certificate.
+Self-signed certificates can be generated for free, without paying top-dollar for a website SSL certificate.
However these aren't looked upon favourably in the security community because they can be subject to so-called "man-in-the-middle" attacks.
If you wish, you can turn on strict certificate checking.
This will mean you cannot connect (at all) to self-signed SSL sites.
## Additional Features
-There are several optional features in Friendica.
-Like the *dislike* button or the usage of a *richtext editor* for composing new postings.
+There are several optional features in Friendica like the *dislike* button.
In this section of the admin panel you can select a default setting for your node and eventually fix it, so users cannot change the setting anymore.
## DB Updates
By default PHP warnings and error messages are supressed.
If you want to enable those, you have to activate them in the ``.htconfig.php`` file.
-Use the following settings to redirect PHP errors to a file.

Config:
Undeclared variables are occasionally referenced in the program and therefore we do not recommend using `E_NOTICE` or `E_ALL`.
The vast majority of issues reported at these levels are completely harmless.
Please report to the developers any errors you encounter in the logs using the recommended settings above.
-They generally indicate issues which need to be resolved.

If you encounter a blank (white) page when using the application, view the PHP logs - as this almost always indicates an error has occurred.
