I bet you're wondering either what this is and/or how to use it, so:

This is a system used to keep the users (who use UniUploader) addons, logos, and settings updated.
When you upload an addon to this system, and hit "update" in UU, UU will look up the "Synchronization URL" (the one in the frame on the left) UU will then proceed to download any update(s) that are in any way different than the copy stored on the user's hard drive, UU will replace the addon with the new copy of the addon from this system.

FAQ

  1. First, hover your mouse over each setting, you'll get a tooltip with the corresponding part of the UniUploader interface.
  2. If you are still confused
    • Manually configure UniUploader with the settings needed for your config.
      • Open the settings.ini and you'll see all the settings just like in the Settings Management page.
    • Or just upload your copy of settings.ini to the settings page in UniAdmin.
