User guide
Find your way around FeatherPanel as a customer. The dashboard, the server list with folders, the status page, appearance settings and links to every server guide.
On this page
This part of the docs is for people who use a FeatherPanel that someone else runs. If you run the panel yourself, see the admin guide.
Dashboard
The dashboard shows your services at a glance: how many game servers are running, your virtual servers, web hosting and support tickets. A Needs attention list warns about servers that are suspended, expiring or expired, failed to install, are almost out of disk, sit on a node in maintenance, and tickets with new replies.
Arrange your dashboard lets you drag cards by their handle (or use the arrow keys), resize them with + and -, hide them, and reset to the default. Admins with settings access can save their layout as the default for everyone.
Servers
The Servers page lists your game servers in a grid or list. Search by name, show running servers only, or use By Folder to create folders and sort servers into them. Servers shared with you as a subuser are listed too. Admins also get a view of everyone’s servers.
Status
When the host turned it on, Status shows node health: total and healthy nodes, servers, average CPU and global memory and disk use, with a card per node.
Appearance
Preferences changes how the panel looks for you: dark or light mode, accent color, background (gradient, solid color or an image, with blur and darken), text size, font, density and layout. Hosts can lock some of these, and plugin theme or UI packs may add more choices.
