Using the GMC Configuration Manager
Problem
Administrators need to find a Gladstone 360 setting in the GMC Configuration Manager, give one site a different value from the rest, and make sure saved changes reach every user.
Resolution
Open the Configuration Manager
- Go to
GMC > Configuration Manager > Configuration.
- Go to
Choose the element and instance
- Choose the element in Please Select Product and, if there's more than one, the instance in the drop-down beside it.
- Use Expand all to see every section. Introduction gives a summary of the module.
Element Covers Gladstone360 CheckIn POS Cache, general check-in/POS settings, membership emails, Payment Manager, prospect emails, toastr, documents, email templates Gladstone360 Contacts Cache, freeze settings, password reset, documents, email templates Gladstone360 Front of House Activity groups, bank and identity validation, cache, financial, general, membership, regional and workflow settings, subscription types and groups, documents, email templates Gladstone360 Home Home bar and home screen Gladstone360 Access Class check-in widget and access settings Member Facing Global Settings shared with customer-facing products (Go, Connect, MobilePro) Shared Global Settings shared across the suite Give one site its own value (if applicable)
- Many settings have an All Sites value. To give one site a different value:
- Click the option to add another control to the setting (for example Activity Start Tolerance Time).
- A new empty parameter appears at the bottom of the section.
- Enter the value and select the site it applies to.
- On saving, the site-specific value overrides the All Sites value for that site.
- Many settings have an All Sites value. To give one site a different value:
Save and close
- Select Save, then Close. Users see the change at next login; a browser refresh may be needed.
Notes
- Many settings are marked "provided by Gladstone Software and should only be modified by an authorised user or a Gladstone representative". The settings reference articles mark these (Gladstone). Menu names may have moved in current builds.
- Each element has Cache Settings > Clear Cache Url (Gladstone). After a configuration change, this URL refreshes the application cache and pushes the change to all users. Gladstone replaces the default
localhostsource with the real domain, which is faster. - Don't change clear cache URLs or IP addresses yourself: a mistyped character stops that function working (ask support to restore it).
- Documentation gives the CheckIn POS clear cache default as
http://localhost/Gladstone360/POS/Api/clearcachebut suggestshttp://<DomainName>/Gladstone360/POS/Api/utils/clearcache(an extrautils/segment). The Front of House paths omit/Gladstone360/. Leave these to Gladstone. - Settings reference by element:
