Authentication, Admin Panel and SMTP Settings

WeKan has an Admin Panel for managing the whole instance, reached from your member menu (top right corner) when you are an admin.

Admin Panel

On the Source and Docker platforms the Admin Panel lets you:

  • Allow self-registration, or switch to invite-only and invite users to boards.
  • Manage users ("People").
  • Configure SMTP (email) settings.
  • Configure layout, accessibility, announcements, and other instance settings.

People: Domains tab

Admin Panel → People has a Domains tab that lists the email domains in use across the instance together with the number of users on each domain.

People: Organizations / Teams toggle columns

The Organizations and Teams tabs under Admin Panel → People have per-organization / per-team toggle columns:

  • Shared Templates — whether template boards shared with this organization/team are available to its members.
  • Propagate Members To Boards — whether members of this organization/team are automatically added to the relevant boards. Enabling it adds the group's member users to the regular boards that list the group (add-only; template boards are skipped). It runs during the LDAP background sync and can also be triggered by an admin.
  • Sync Members From Auth Provider — whether the membership is kept in sync from the authentication provider (for example LDAP groups, see LDAP_SYNC_ORGANIZATIONS / LDAP_SYNC_TEAMS).

Restrict board members to the same Organization or Team

When the global admin setting "Add board members only from the same Organization or Team" (boardMembersFromSameOrgOrTeamOnly, default off) is enabled, a user can only be added to a board if they share at least one Organization or Team with the inviter or with an active board member. Site admins bypass the restriction. This is useful on multi-tenant instances and is enforced server-side (both the invite action and the user-search typeahead respect it).

Per-user announcement dismissal

The global Announcement banner can now be dismissed permanently per user — closing it stores the current announcement version on that user, so it does not reappear on reload or board switch. When an admin edits the announcement text, its version changes and the banner reappears for everyone.

Restrict comment editing (per board)

A board setting "Restrict comment editing" (restrictCommentEditing, default off) prevents board admins from editing or deleting other users' comments — only a comment's author may edit or delete it. Enforced server-side. See Comment replies and editing restriction.

Sandstorm platform

On Sandstorm, authentication (LDAP, passwordless email, SAML, GitHub and Google Auth) and SMTP are handled by Sandstorm. You add and remove users there, and WeKan, Rocket.Chat and other apps can be installed with one click.
