Melodial Plus FAQs for administrators

3 min read

Answers for Plus administrators who manage multiple locations from one admin account: creating users, user permissions, private playlists, and per location ads and schedules.

I bought five Plus licences and I control the admin account. How do I create five new users, and how do I get certificates for those users?

Each licence becomes its own location login, created from your admin account. The interactive walkthrough below shows every step of creating a location.

How do I create a private playlist?

The interactive walkthrough below shows every step in the app.

What are the user permission options?

Open a location from the Manage Organisation tab and choose Edit to see its permission switches, shown below.

If May create playlists is enabled, that user can create their own playlists. Playlists they create are only available to them. Playlists that the admin account creates are available to all of your users.

The same applies to May create ads. If it is enabled, that user can create their own ads. Ads they create are only available to them. Ads that the admin account creates are available to all of your users and automatically play in their streams.

I want each of my users to have their own ad message, but I do not want staff changing the ads

1
Enable May create ads for that user.
2
Log in as that user, then create the ad and activate it.
3
Disable May create ads for that user again.

The ad you created stays active, and the user cannot change any ad settings.

I restricted a user to company playlists, but they can see all company playlists. I want them limited to one playlist I prepared for that location

1
Disable May edit own schedule for that user.
2
Disable Allow manual play.
3
In the Manage Organisation tab, go to Schedules.
4
Schedule the desired playlist at the desired times for that user.

When that user logs in, the scheduled playlist plays automatically as scheduled. The user cannot change anything, only switch playback on or off.
