Tile Dashboard Layouts

1. Less is more - Don't overwhelm users with too many tiles, only those that are truly important to their role. Also, less is more not only for the end users, but also for you as Admin, you don’t want to be managing too many tile layouts.
2. Tiles pushed out by an Admin will not overwrite tiles created by individual users. However, Admin created tiles will take precedence and appear at the top.
3. Users can only delete tiles that have been shared if the permission “Can Customize” was checked, if the permission “Can View” was checked, then the tiles will be locked.
4. We recommend staying away from sharing “time sensitive” tiles because that will lead to more management for you as Admin because it will need to be removed later on. Consider creating a more general tile that links to all the benchmark assessments instead of one specific assessment.

1. Give the new layout a name.
2. Click Add a New Tile.

Adding a Tile:

5. Select the URL you wish this tile to link to, this can be within Illuminate or an external link (i.e. District website, etc.).
6. Give the tile a color.
7. When this tile is clicked, do you want it to open in a new window? Check this box if so.

9. Click Save when finished.

10. If you would like to delete any tiles, simply click the trash can icon on the tile. To edit, click on the pencil icon. To re-order tiles, simply click and drag.
