# What does the admin dashboard show?

The first page of the admin panel gives a quick picture of your community and anything waiting for you.

---

When you open the admin panel, you land on the dashboard. It is called **Mission Control** and gives you a quick picture of your community.

## Numbers at the top

You see figures such as **Total Members** , **Active Listings** , **Transactions** and **Hours Exchanged** . A second row shows **New Users This Month** , **Active Users** , **Total Listings** and **New Listings This Month** . Press **Refresh** to update them.

## Things waiting for you

When something needs your attention, a card appears with a **Review** button. For example:

- Members awaiting approval: people who have signed up and are waiting to be let in.
- Listings awaiting moderation: new listings held back for checking.
- Volunteering organizations awaiting approval: only if your community uses volunteering.

## Quick actions

The **Quick Actions** card has shortcuts such as **Manage Users** , **View Listings** , **New Blog Post** and **Settings** . If your community uses newsletters, you also see **Send Newsletter** .

## Charts and activity

**Transaction Trends** shows how many hours changed hands each month. **Real-time Activity** lists the latest things that happened in your community.

If you see a red card titled **Safeguarding step is OFF in your onboarding wizard** , read the Safeguarding section of this guide before you press its button.
