What users with permissions see at login

When you first log in to Karl after you get permissions, you will be in the Content dashboard with a view of All pages.

All pages

Before you have edited any pages, Content dashboard will show a view of all pages.

Pages appear in order of most recently edited (by any SF.gov user)

My Edits

As soon as you have edited at least one page, your default login screen changes. You will see Content dashboard showing My edits.

My edits are all pages you have edited. This includes pages you:

  • Created

  • Did not create, but made changes on

  • Opened in edit and saved, without making any changes

My edits is the Content dashboard with an "Edited by" filter applied. This limits the pages shown to only those you have edited.

You can switch from My edits to All pages by clearing the "Edited by" filter.

Click on the x next to your name.
