Utilities: Administration: Sites

Sites help you organize your ListManager server, and facilitate in administration.

A site is characterized by its Internet host name. You can have multiple sites on your server, and each one can have its own host name. All lists under that site use that host name after the @ sign when sending mail.

If you have multiple divisions in your organization, or if you are hosting other people's lists, each group of lists can use a separate domain with its own "brand". For example, if you were a publisher with many different imprints, each one could have its own domain—lists.example.com, lists.redmood.com, etc. The messages being sent from these different sites would appear to be completely independent of one another.

Another useful function for sites is for administration purposes. You can make someone a site administrator, who would have the ability to administer all lists in that particular site. That administrator could also make new lists in that site. Making site administrators is often easier than making individuals list administrators of many separate lists.

If you do not have access to the Sites area, it may be that you do not have permissions to do so. Contact your server admin to be made a site administrator

The number of sites you are permitted to have is determined by your license. Contact your account representative at sales@lyris.com if you'd like to have more sites.

Finding a Site

Ten sites are shown at a time. To view more than ten sites at a time, click show more. Repeatedly clicking show more will show greater numbers of sites at a time.

You may change the sorting order of the sites by clicking the up or down triangles next to Name or Description. By clicking the top triangle, the sort order will be ascending (a-z); clicking the bottom arrow makes the sort order descending (z-a). Click next to see the next ten sites, previous to see the last ten.

Viewing or Editing a Site

To view a site, click on the name next to the site you'd like to view. You will be taken to the Utilities: Administration: Sites: New Sites page, where you can view or edit the site.

Copying a Site

Click "copy" next to the site you'd like to copy. ListManager will show you the old name and description for the site, and ask you for a new name and description. Once you have saved the site, you may edit it by clicking on the name.

Deleting a Site

Click "delete" next to the site you'd like to delete. ListManager will ask you if you're sure before deleting the site. Note that you cannot delete a site if you are logged into a list on that site. Log in to a different list to delete the site you're currently logged into.

Creating a Site

Click create new site to be taken to the Utilities: Administration: Sites: New Site page.
