What an Admin page should include?

Posted 18 January 2012 - 03:43 AM

Hey guys,

I'm currently working in a php project with mySQl DBs and all that and I was thinking in creating a admin page. by that I mean a page where the website admin can see the latest "news" and all that funny stuff that normal users don't have.
So I would like to know what options would you put in your admin page.

Some of my ideas are:

-The ten latest user
-Total number of users
-Number of users online
-Number of post in the last day
-Be able to block user accounts
-Send auto messages to the user


Here are my ideas, tell if you would add some or delete some to your admin page.

Is This A Good Question/Topic? 0

The point is to have a broad overview of the statistics of the site, such as traffic, unique visitors, referrals, average time a user stays, etc.

Think statistics, you want every ounce of data you can out of every visitor. Read up on statistics in web design, look at some opencourseware in statistics.

Other points of interest you may consider: Browser, version, OS ( + version), resolution, color depth. Again, statistics. You want to make every visit count to the maximum.
