The Contribute System is our tool for team projects and crowdsourcing. It lets people create content on Humap without giving them access to the admin dashboard or the subscriptions panel.

You can invite the entire world to take part, like Layers of London has done, or just grant permissions to a select few. To manage who has access to this feature, click Manage Features in the subscription panel and select Allow signups for it to be publicly available. You can manage users in the subscriptions platform, and we have more information on different user account types here.

Our optional content moderation feature requires all that content is approved by an admin level user before publishing.

Logging in

• To access the admin area, make sure you have the Project Admin level permissions and go to your-humap-url.humap.site/admin.
• If you’re not already logged in you will be redirected to your-humap-url.humap.site/log-in and presented with this screen:

• You can then log in with your email and password.
• You can also access the admin area via the Subscription Platform, if your organisation has an institutional license and you have Subscription Admin level permissions.
• Go to https://subscription.humap.site/users/sign_in and log in with your user name and password.

• That will take you to the Subscription Platform home screen.
• There will be a list of map projects created on your subscription.
• Click Admin next to the project you would like to access, and you will be taken to the admin dashboard of that project.

• That will take you into the admin content management system.

• Click Contribute in the menu on the left.

• Select the items you would like your users to be able to create. The options available will reflect which features you have enabled.
• Contribute users can create Records, Collections, Trails, Timelines, Journeys, and Teams.
