Is there an easy way to update the dashboard?

A normal pi-hole installation will update the dashboard on a weekly basis through a cron job. Sometimes there is an additional bugfix that you might want to try out now before the weekly update takes place. If you run pihole -u it will (only) update the dashboard to the latest master of the AdminLTE pi-hole version.

The Admin page stats take a long time to load (or times out) #341

The stats can take a little while to process, and this is just because it's being run on a low-power device! If you have something running on the pi that uses a lot of processing power, the stat calculations could take longer than usual. To fix the stats from timing out, edit /etc/php5/cgi/php.ini, increase max_execution_time and restart the lighttpd service.
