[Features](https://knowledge-base.sportal365.com/features?hsLang=en) # What is Sportal365 Manager? ## Sportal365 Manager is a comprehensive dashboard designed for managing your editorial operations on the Sportal365 platform. With this single tool, you can oversee user accounts, monitor publishing metrics, access your GA4 audience data, and generate reports for AI-written content—all without the need to switch between different tools or manually create spreadsheets. **Who it's for:** editorial leads, content managers, account administrators, and analytics stakeholders working across one or more Sportal365 projects. **How to sign in:** The Manager uses your existing Sportal365 CMS credentials — the same login you use today. There's nothing extra to install or register; open Manager and sign in. ![manager - dashboard](https://knowledge-base.sportal365.com/hs-fs/hubfs/manager%20-%20dashboard.png?width=670&height=335&name=manager%20-%20dashboard.png) ### In this guide - **Dashboard** — your daily health check - **Accounts** — manage your team - **Teams** — track group targets - **Metrics** — monthly content analytics - **Portfolio** — compare projects - **Analytics** — GA4 reader insights - **Reports** — AI-powered analysis - **Fans** **United** — engagement console - **Settings** — preferences & configuration - **Languages, dark mode, mobile & access** - **FAQ** --- ### Dashboard — your daily health check The Dashboard is your starting point each day. It shows today's output against yesterday and lets you drill into the detail in a couple of clicks. - **Today's content cards** — articles, videos, galleries, and images published today vs yesterday, compared in your *project's* local time (e.g. Europe/Sofia), not your browser's. - **AI content tracking** — AI-generated and AI-external articles are counted separately and kept out of your main totals. - **7-day trend chart** — filter by origin (All, Internal, AI Generated, AI External) to see the week's pattern. - **Quick drilldown** — click any number to break it down by author, category, or hour of day. - **Quick actions** — jump straight to Create Account, Find Account, Content Metrics, or Bulk Import. ![manager-dashboard-drilldown](https://knowledge-base.sportal365.com/hs-fs/hubfs/manager-dashboard-drilldown.png?width=670&height=337&name=manager-dashboard-drilldown.png) --- ### Accounts — manage your team Everything to do with user accounts lives here: create, find, edit, and audit. - **Search & find** — locate accounts by name or email and filter by status (Active, Inactive, Read-only). - **Create an account** — provision a user with an auto-generated password (shown once — save it). - **Bulk import** — upload a CSV file containing each user's full name, email address, and read-only status, then optionally clone permissions from an existing template account. Once processing is complete, download the generated login credentials as a CSV file. - **Assign access** — set projects, one role per project, and optional category restrictions. Use **Copy permissions** to clone another user's projects and roles. - **Manage a user** — view their content metrics by day/week/month, see a publish-time heatmap, reset a password, or deactivate the account (login disabled, PII kept, reversible). - **Account hygiene audit** (admin) — surfaces inactive accounts, read-only accounts, and active editors with no published articles in the window. ![account screen](https://knowledge-base.sportal365.com/hs-fs/hubfs/account%20screen.png?width=670&height=336&name=account%20screen.png) ### Who can manage accounts? Managing accounts is gated by permissions in your project, and each media decides how to grant it. Choose whichever fits how your team works: - **A dedicated "account manager" role** — create a role with account-management permissions and assign it to as many trusted users as you like, so several people can manage accounts under their own logins. - **Your existing admin role** — add account-management permissions to the admin role so current admins can do it. - **One shared account** — create a single account dedicated to account management and share its credentials with the people who need it. Your Sportal365 representative can help you set this up. --- ### Teams — track group targets Group editors into teams and track their combined output against monthly goals. - **Create & edit teams** — name a team and add members (searchable). - **Monthly targets** — set optional goals per content type (articles, videos, images, galleries…). - **Per-member breakdown** — see each member's contribution to the team total. - **Inactive member detection** — flags members who haven't published in a set number of days. ![team screen](https://knowledge-base.sportal365.com/hs-fs/hubfs/team%20screen.png?width=670&height=336&name=team%20screen.png) --- ### Metrics — monthly content analytics A deep dive into how, what, and how much your team publishes. - **Content breakdown** — articles, videos, images, galleries, liveblogs, and wiki, with a daily/monthly toggle and 12-month trends. - **AI share** — track AI-generated and AI-external article counts and how the AI share moves across the month. - **Content-mix vs targets** — overlay actual output on the editorial targets you set in Settings. - **Category coverage** — spot categories with no published articles in the period. - **Image origins** — Getty vs IMAGO vs other, with a drill-down for top categories. The first computation can take a few minutes, then it's cached; a freshness label shows when it last updated. ![metrics screen 1](https://knowledge-base.sportal365.com/hs-fs/hubfs/metrics%20screen%201.png?width=670&height=334&name=metrics%20screen%201.png) ![metrics screen 2](https://knowledge-base.sportal365.com/hs-fs/hubfs/metrics%20screen%202.png?width=670&height=332&name=metrics%20screen%202.png) ![metrics screen 3](https://knowledge-base.sportal365.com/hs-fs/hubfs/metrics%20screen%203.png?width=670&height=336&name=metrics%20screen%203.png) --- ### Portfolio — compare projects If you work across more than one project, the Portfolio view puts your favorites side by side. (It appears in the menu only when you have 2+ projects.) - **Today** — every favorited project's content counts for today. - **Trends** — a 7-day chart comparing your favorite projects. - **Authors** — top authors across all your favorites. Star projects from the project switcher to add them to your portfolio. ![portfolio screen](https://knowledge-base.sportal365.com/hs-fs/hubfs/portfolio%20screen.png?width=670&height=336&name=portfolio%20screen.png) --- ### Analytics — GA4 reader insights The Analytics section shows you which content your audience engages with most, powered by Google Analytics 4 (GA4). To enable it, an admin must link a GA4 property in Settings — this is available for production environments only. - **KPI cards** — total views plus article, video, image, and gallery views. - **Daily trend chart** — engagement over time. - **By category & editor** — which topics and which people drive traffic. - **Top content** — the 50 most-viewed articles, each linking to the published page. - **Date ranges** — presets (last 7/30/90 days, this/last month) or a custom range, defaulting to your project's timezone. --- ### Reports — AI-powered analysis Reports turn raw content data into a finished, readable analysis using Anthropic's Claude — so nobody has to tally categories or build tables by hand. - **16 ready-made templates** — including Content Volume, Category Distribution, Author Performance, Publishing Rhythm, Image Sources, Multimedia Usage, Market Comparison, Content Depth, Syndicated Content and more. - **Custom prompts** — ask in your own words (e.g. "List the top 10 categories by article count as a table"). Templates are recommended for the most reliable results. - **Filters** — date range, include or exclude syndicated content, and origin type (AI + external, AI only, or external only). - **Multi-project** — add more projects to run the same report side by side and combine the sections. - **Runs server-side** — a report typically takes 2–10 minutes; you can close the tab and come back. Up to 2 reports run at once per user. - **Output** — copy the markdown, download it, export a PDF, and find it later in your saved reports. ![reports screen 1](https://knowledge-base.sportal365.com/hs-fs/hubfs/reports%20screen%201.png?width=670&height=334&name=reports%20screen%201.png) ![reports 2](https://knowledge-base.sportal365.com/hs-fs/hubfs/reports%202.png?width=670&height=335&name=reports%202.png) --- ### Fans United — engagement console The Fans United section lets you manage interactive fan engagement — including prediction games, polls, quizzes, and leaderboards — from an embedded console inside Sportal365 Manager. Sign in to the console directly within the panel; if the console does not load, select **Open in new tab** to access it in a separate browser tab. --- ### Settings — preferences & configuration - **Theme** — Light, Dark, or System; your choice is remembered. - **Language** — pick from 8 locales; the whole UI translates. - **Content-mix targets** — set the production mix you're aiming for, used on the Metrics page. - **GA4 configuration** (admin) — link a property ID and test the connection; advanced overrides available for partner setups. - **URL pattern health check** — Manager learns your canonical content URL pattern and flags recent drift that might signal a feed issue. --- ### Languages, dark mode, mobile & access - **8 languages** — English, Bulgarian, Serbian, Portuguese, Spanish, Romanian, Dutch, Slovak. To change the interface language, go to **Settings → Language** and select your preferred locale; the entire UI updates immediately. - **Dark mode** — full Light / Dark / System support, applied before the page paints so there's no flash. - **Mobile** — responsive layout with a touch-friendly menu; charts and tables reflow to a single column. - **Accessibility** — keyboard-navigable, skip-to-content link, ARIA labels, and focus handling throughout. - **Permissions** — access is scoped per project; some features (GA4 setup, hygiene audit) are admin-only, and read-only accounts can view but not edit. --- ### FAQ **How long do reports take?** Usually 2–10 minutes. Your content data and the selected report template are sent to Anthropic's Claude AI model to generate the analysis. No personally identifiable information is included in that request. **Whose time zone are the numbers in?** Your project's local time (for example Europe/Sofia), so "today" matches your editorial day — not your browser's UTC. **Why are AI articles separate from my totals?** AI-generated and AI-external articles are tracked on their own so your core editorial numbers stay clean. **Where is my data stored?** Your login stays on your device for the session. Content queries go to Sportal365, and report data goes to Anthropic for generation; nothing else is shared with third parties, and personal details aren't kept in browser storage. **Why don't I see Analytics or Portfolio?** Analytics appears once a GA4 property is configured (production); Portfolio appears when you have 2+ projects on your account. --- ### A quick walkthrough of the Sportal365 Manager --- *Need a hand?
