Turn the sidebar on or off for everyone. When enabled, it appears automatically Monday–Friday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM in each visitor’s local time. The setting updates without a page refresh.
Review user feedback. Developer+ staff can close items when they have been handled. Closing removes the item from the inbox.
Suggestions submitted from the Games page. This list is separate from general feedback.
Turn DougHub features on or off. Page Availability controls navigation buttons only: a disabled destination redirects to DougHub home, while direct URLs remain accessible. DMail and DougTube stay off the main navigation.
Automatically and permanently delete the oldest community chat messages whenever the message count exceeds your limit. This affects Community Chat only, not DMail.
Example: set 150 to keep only the newest 150 messages. When enabled, messages beyond this number are permanently deleted, including existing excess messages when you save.
Review all public and private groups. Removing a group permanently deletes its messages and memberships too.
Review polls across Community Chat and groups. Admin+ can close an active poll at any time; closed polls remain visible with their results.
Review Helper+ pins and remove pins that are outdated or inappropriate. Removing a pin does not delete its message.
Show a dismissible announcement on the homepage. Dismissing it only hides it until the next full reload.

Turn a page’s navigation buttons off immediately or schedule when they redirect to DougHub home. Direct URLs remain accessible. Times use your browser’s local time.
Hide navigation buttons and links to Chat and Games across DougHub every day from 9:00 AM through 2:50 PM Pacific Time. Direct page URLs will still work. This setting applies site-wide.
Create a unique badge and assign it to a member.
