How can I manage my users?
I have setup the Lemmy backend but I can't see the backend running just only json is displaying. Lemmy ui is also setup properly but with very limited features. See the attached screenshot of the backend. I run "cargo run" command to start the Lemmy Backend
The lemmy backend doesn't have a UI, all it talks is JSON through APIs. That's what lemmy-ui is for, it's the UI that goes on top. It's also why the default setup overlays it on top of the backend: they're meant to work together where the UI handles browser requests, but if it's a JSON/API request then it goes to the server instead. They provide the same data in different formats on the same URLs.
@max-P thanks for the quick reply. but please tell me how can I manage my users the lemmy-ui has limited features.
You just go directly to the user's page, and from there you can do things like ban/delete/purge.
As for communities, you can promote users to moderators via the 3 dots overflow menu once they have posted/commented on a community.
Otherwise, there just isn't really a user management page or system. It's a bit clunky but that's how it works at the moment.
What would you like to manage?
If you know SQL, you can view your users in the database directly.
