Overview

19.

You can change certain aspects of your dashboard, namely the :ref:`user-specific information <user_specific_information>`, but a lot of what you see is static to allow you to quickly access other parts of Mahara.

20.

Your homepage is your dashboard from which you can access a number of areas in Mahara conveniently.

21.

**General navigation bar**: Move from one area of Mahara to the next. This can be done by having a second-level navigation that is tabbed or a drop-down menu.

22.

**Username**: The username is displayed to indicate who is logged in esp. when viewing portfolio pages where the profile block is not visible. This feature is only present when :ref:`small page headers <small_headers>` are not turned on. You can click on it to go to your profile page.

23.

**Settings**: This link gives you access to your :ref:`account settings and notifications <settings>`.

24.

**Inbox**: Go to your Mahara inbox to check for new messages. When you have unread messages, the counter displays the number of unread messages.

25.

**Logout**: Link to log out of your current session.

26.

**User search**: Search for users who have an account to view their profile page and check which pages they have made accessible to you.

27.

In the *User search* box you can most often search for users' :ref:`display name <about_me>`. Depending on the settings that the site administrator made, you may also be able to search for users' :ref:`real name and username <user_settings>`. If the site administrator allowed users to hide their real name, you can do so in your :ref:`general account options <general_account_options>`.
