About
The Dashboard (which is located in the backend), is an administrative control panel. You are able to access this once you are logged in. It provides a centralized interface with a left-hand navigation menu to manage all aspects of the site, including creating and editing content, adding and configuring plugins and themes, moderating comments, managing media, and accessing site settings and tools.
Note the Dashboard will look different according to your site and user status. You may not see some of the tabs described below in the Dashboard and content management section.
Many instructions on this board will refer to the dashboard and mostly they mean the blue menu on the left side.
The right side of the dashboard changes based on how you interact with the left hand menu (items in blue). However, when you first log in, or click on "Dashboard", you will see an area to request Planeteria Support, recent activity, a broken link checker, and your gravity forms. This section of the dashboard can be configured to show different elements if these are not the ones you wish to see.
