Creating and Logging into the Web Dashboard

Okay, so you're running a 7 Days to Die server. If you've been using Telnet, you know it can be a bit… involved. All those commands? Yeah, not always fun. That's where the Web Dashboard comes in. It's like a control panel for your server, but way easier. Then, forget typing kickplayer [name] – just click a button. You can manage players, change settings, start and stop your server, everything, right from your browser. This guide shows you how to get your account set up and log in. Trust us, it's a game-changer for server management.

Just a quick heads-up: before you dive in, make sure you're logged in as an admin on your server. You can follow this guide here: https://pingplayers.com/knowledgebase/7-days-to-die/how-to-make-a-user-admin-in-7-days-to-die

Step-by-Step Guide to Create and Connect to the Web Dashboard

1. Enable the Web Console

   b. Look for the option to enable Web Console and toggle it on.
   c. After enabling, make sure to click on Update Settings.
   d. Restart your server for the settings to take effect.

Note: If you have Telnet enabled, please disable it as it may conflict with the web dashboard and it will not work.

2. Log into Your Game

   
   a. Once your server is set up and running, log into the game.
