You will find more detailed information about managing data on your deployment in Section 6. But here is a quick run-through about managing data on your deployment through the sidebar and toolbar in any of the views mentioned earlier: Map view, Data view, Activity View and Settings View.


Add new post: Add new posts from the sidebar as shown in the screenshot below.


Sources: From the toolbar, Get a breakdown of incoming posts by source (when in map view or data view).


Languages: From the toolbar, visitors to your Ushahidi instance can select the language they'd like to interact with your data in. The language list consists of languages that have been translated.

Adding new posts via the 'Add new post' button.
The map view sidebar allows you to filter out Email, SMS, Twitter, Web, USSD and WhatsApp data sources.
This dropdown allows you to select the language you'd wish to be displayed.
