There is a limitation of the PostgreSQL installer if you are using windows domains.

The installer will need to make a postgres user that have write permissions on %PROGRAMFILES%\Postgres.

If the PostgreSQL is/will-be unable to do so, please setup the permissions beforehand. Adding write for "Everyone" or adding rights for a new postgres user with the default password Pgsq1p@ssword will avert this limitation.

If you tried a normal noodle install and you have a black "upgrade in progress" screen then this is likely the problem. There is no need to reinstall noodle; just uninstall PostgreSQL, set up the permissions, download the PGInstaller and reinstall PostgreSQL.

After you install PostgreSQL you will need to edit the pg_hba.conf and make sure there is a "127.0.0.1/32 password" line.
Next run the init.sql in the Noodle folder with PGAdmin3 one line at a time.
Restart the PostgreSQL then Noodle service.

Bookmarks or "favorites" are a basic but very useful browser feature.  Noodle has a simple yet powerful bookmark system featuring tabs to organize your most frequently used applications.  Users can set up their own custom tabs in the Quickbar which can include a link to any application or page the user has the rights to access.

  1. From the My Profile Page, click the edit button in the top right.  In the General Settings Tab choose Yes to Display Quickbar.  Save your changes and log back in to Noodle to apply. Select the Edit link that now appears in the top left under the Toolbar Logo to open the Quickbar Settings.
  1. Add a tab by entering a name into the textbox below the list of currently available tabs.  (Ex. Company Forms or Personal Pages...)  Select Create New to save. When a tab is selected, a list of it's linked applications or pages will now be shown in the lower list.  Click  "Add New" and select an application in the new window to create a link to another application.

Shortcut names may be altered from this menu by selecting them in the lower list and entering a new name for them in the textbox.  Select Rename.
Quickbar tab names may also be changed in the same fashion.
