Admin Portal
Overview
The Admin Portal is the operations and administration console for DreamPlan. It gives the platform team visibility into overall usage, vendor quality control, and user management. Only users with the Admin role can access this portal.
Portal URL: admin.dreamplan.sagargandecha.dev
The Admin Portal is intentionally streamlined — it focuses on the operational tasks that keep the platform running smoothly rather than replicating planner or vendor functionality.
Platform Stats Dashboard
When you log in, the dashboard shows key platform-wide metrics at a glance:
| Stat | Description |
|---|---|
| Total Users | The number of registered accounts across all roles |
| Total Events | The total number of events created on the platform |
| Total Vendors | The number of registered vendor accounts |
| Total Guests | The combined guest count across all events |
These stats update in real time and give administrators a quick pulse check on platform growth and activity.
Key Functions
Vendor Approval Queue
New vendors who register on DreamPlan must be reviewed and approved before their profile appears in the public vendor directory. The approval queue shows all pending vendor submissions with their business details, categories, and gallery.
To access the vendor approval queue:
- Log in to the Admin Portal.
- Click Vendors in the main navigation.
- Pending vendors appear at the top of the list.
See Vendor Approval for the full approval workflow, including how to review, approve, and reject submissions.
User Management
View, search, and filter all platform users. Useful for support tasks, account investigations, and understanding the user base.
To access user management:
- Log in to the Admin Portal.
- Click Users in the main navigation.
- Browse, filter by role, or search by name or email.
See User Management for details on user fields, filtering, and search.
Access Requirements
The Admin Portal is restricted to users with the Admin role. This role is assigned directly in the database — there is no self-service way to become an admin.
If you attempt to access the Admin Portal without the Admin role, you will be redirected to the login page or shown a permission error.
Logging In
- Navigate to
admin.dreamplan.sagargandecha.dev. - Enter your admin credentials (email and password).
- You will land on the Dashboard showing platform stats.
Tips
Tip: Check the vendor approval queue regularly. Vendors are waiting for approval before they can receive enquiries, so timely reviews directly impact their experience.
Tip: Use the dashboard stats to spot trends — a sudden drop in new events or users may indicate a platform issue worth investigating.
Tip: The Admin Portal is read-heavy by design. Most destructive actions (like deleting users or events) require database access to prevent accidental damage.
Tip: Bookmark the admin dashboard for quick access. The URL is
admin.dreamplan.sagargandecha.dev/dashboard.
FAQ
Who can access the Admin Portal? Only users with the Admin role. This role is assigned at the database level and cannot be self-assigned or requested through the platform.
Can I create new admin accounts from the portal? Admin role assignment is currently done at the database level. The portal does not have a self-service admin creation feature.
