Admin Tour

Every screen, every menu — what it does and when you'd use it.

The left sidebar

Your main navigation. Reorder items by dragging them. Click an item to open that section.

Item	What it's for
Dashboard	Home screen with recent activity and content counts.
Content models	Define the types of content (Blog Post, Page, Product…). One-time setup.
Your content types	Below the system items, each content type appears as its own list (e.g. "Blog Posts", "Pages").
Components	Reusable groups of fields you can drop into multiple content types.
Media	The file library: images, videos, PDFs.
Forms	Contact / signup / inquiry forms and their submissions inbox.
Users	Add and manage other admins.
Roles	Define permission groups (Editor, Author, …).
Languages	Configure which languages your site supports.
API keys	Generate credentials for developers / external apps.
Webhooks	Notify other systems when content changes.
Activity	Audit trail of every change.
Settings	Site-wide configuration: logo, SEO defaults, email, social links.

The header with the notifications bell and avatar dropdown open.

Every "index" screen (entries, media, submissions, …) follows the same pattern:

Filter bar at the top — status, language, date range, free-text search.
Table in the middle — click a column header to sort, click a row to open.
Bulk actions — tick the checkboxes on the left, then pick an action from the dropdown above.
Pagination at the bottom — page size is per-user (saved in your profile).
Primary action button in the top-right ("New entry", "Upload", …).

Most edit screens have:

Don't memorize — exploreHover over any icon for a tooltip. Most actions have a discoverable shortcut next to the menu item.

Time to define your first content type. This is where DM Editors starts to feel powerful.
