Navigate to:

User Settings → User Profile

Example:

User Profile


🌓 Dark Mode

Toggle between light and dark interface themes.

  • Enabled: Dark theme with darker backgrounds and reduced eye strain
  • Disabled: Light theme with bright backgrounds

🌐 Language

Select the interface language for the WebUI.

Available languages depend on the system configuration. The default language is English.


📊 Byte Unit

Defines how storage sizes are displayed throughout the interface.

Available options:

OptionDescription
DecimalUses decimal prefixes (KB = 1000 bytes, MB = 1000 KB, etc.)
BinaryUses binary prefixes (KiB = 1024 bytes, MiB = 1024 KiB, etc.)
note
  • Decimal is more intuitive for most users (matches hard drive manufacturer specifications)
  • Binary is technically more accurate for computer systems

⏱️ UI Session Expiry Time (days)

Defines how long your WebUI session remains active before requiring re-authentication.

  • Default: 14 days
  • Range: Typically 1-30 days
Security Note

Shorter session expiry times increase security by requiring more frequent re-authentication. Longer times improve convenience but may pose a security risk if you leave your browser unattended.


👁️ Hide Inactive Menus

Controls the visibility of menu items for features that are not currently active or configured.

  • Enabled: Menu items for inactive features are hidden from the left navigation
  • Disabled: All menu items are shown, even if the corresponding feature is not active
tip
  • Enable this option for a cleaner interface that only shows relevant menu items
  • Disable this option to see all available features and explore the full interface

📁 Group Menus

Organizes the left navigation menu into collapsible groups.

  • Enabled: Menu items are grouped into categories (Storage, Network Access, Virtualization, MOS Tools, etc.)
  • Disabled: All menu items are displayed in a flat list
tip

Grouped menus help organize large systems with many features enabled.


🎨 Color Scheme

Select a custom accent color for the WebUI interface.

The color scheme affects:

  • Active menu highlights
