Overview of New UI
In this YouTube video Tim KN6PLV provides a fairly extensive overview of the features of the new AREDN User Interface.

Enjoy!

I may be missing something
I may be missing something but are the Execute buttons from the old UI > Advanced Config located somewhere in the new UI?  OLSR Restart, Alert Message Refresh, Alert Message Purge.

When you go into the map of the mesh you need to use the Browser back button to get back to the node UI.  This could just open up in a new window/tab.

New UI looks great.

Execute buttons, etc.
Those buttons aren't implemented in the new UI.  The devs want to know how necessary they are.  We'll poll users to determine if they should be implemented or not.
As far as the clicking on the maps goes, a right-mouse-click will bring up a menu with an open to open in a new tab.   Shouldn't that be sufficient?

buttons and map
For setting up and testing custom alerts it helps so you don't have to reboot or wait an hour.  I have had to refresh OLSR because the node would not resolve host names even if they were being clicked from the list of nodes and services.  That may have been a bug that has since been fixed.  I mostly noticed it after plugging in a node that has not been online.  The go box node doesn't always stay plugged in.

From a UI standpoint the button you should just be able to click the button or have a button on the map window to bring you back to the node UI window.

Count me in as YES for all
Count me in as YES for all the buttons we now have in the old UI ... ESPECIALLY the three identified by KB10TI.  I'll play around more with maps ... still not displaying on the home page.

Edit ... I don't know the utility of having a tiny piece of the map embedded in the home page.  If I want the map I click the "map of the mesh" icon and I have it, only one click away and full tab page  That seems good enough, I'd save home page space for larger fonts or something more immediately useful.

New UI
I have installed the Waterfall package. I do not see any button to access it as on the old UI. How do I access it on the new UI?

The tunnel clients I have on the old UI have different IP address on the new UI. The result is none of my clients have a tunnel to me.The Wireguard Tunnel does keep the same IP and works weather in the new UI or Old.

updating hAP ac lite
I updated my radio using the 23 Aug update.   After logging on the main page, I no longer find a table for one to configure local advertised services.   On previous versions, wasn't there such a table in the middle of the screen?    

And there's two system upgrades, one with the typical name, and a second with a V7 suffix.    What's the difference?  I tried both and there's no table for local advertised services on either.  The settings are available using the old UI thou.

Or is my dementia acting up again?

Local Services
Hi, Richard:

I don't know much about dementia.
I suffer from lysdexia.
In "a/status", I see 'Local Services'.

Old-UI .vs. New-UI
Richard:
You can switch back and forth between the UIs.
In the new UI a/status screen, you can click the Old UI button to browse your node in the former User Interface.

19 Aug nightly
I reverted back to this nightly ...     clicking in the gray area of the  'Local Services' section brings up the configuration table.
