The dashboard at /dashboard is the admin area for pages, media and settings. Editors and administrators sign in with their user account. Readers have no access to the dashboard.

Page Tree

The sidebar lists all pages as a tree, with Virtual System Pages, Snippets and the Trash in collapsible groups below. Select a page to see its details (author, creation and modification date, description, translations, backlinks) and the available actions. The sidebar width can be changed by dragging its edge.

Folder Name and Redirect

URL / Folder Name renames the folder of the page. This changes its URL, so existing links to the page may break. The Redirect Link card sends visitors of a page to another URL or path as soon as the redirect is enabled.

The Backlinks card lists all pages that link to the selected page. Before a page with backlinks is deleted, the dashboard shows which pages would end up with broken links. The index is stored in cache/backlinks.json. It can be switched off and rebuilt under Global Settings > General > Backlinks.

Trash

Deleted pages are moved to pages/_trash/ together with their sub-pages. In the Trash view they can be restored or deleted permanently, or the whole trash can be emptied. If the original path is taken in the meantime, a restored page gets a new folder name.

Snippets and Virtual Pages

Snippets are created with Add Snippet and edited like pages. Insert them with the Snippet block. Virtual System Pages (sidebars, footer and 404 page) are edited the same way, see Virtual Pages.

Media Manager

The Media manager shows global files and the files of single pages. Files are uploaded by drag and drop (up to 10 MB, allowed extensions are set under Global Settings > General).

Start View and Profile

Without a selected page, the dashboard shows the Recently Modified Pages with quick actions. Comments are moderated in the comments panel. The profile menu in the header changes the password and sets the dashboard language and theme for the current user.
