Intro & Documentation

Before you post questions please make sure that you’ve read through the django CMS resources first:

• django CMS Intro for managers and editors – please also watch the video: https://www.django-cms.org/en/why-django-cms/

The django CMS Admin Interface – First Steps

• Admin Panel: The admin panel is where all functionality is accessible, it’s your starting point. You can always go to the admin panel by appending /admin to your domain (i.e. https://yourdomain.com/admin or https://your-website-1.eu.aldryn.io/admin
• Editing a page: You can go into Edit Mode on any page, by simply adding ?edit to any URL in the browser’s address bar. So if you are on https://yourdomain.com/some-page/ then you can append ?edit to the URL (https://yourdomain.com/some-page/?edit) and hit enter. You will then see a login screen unless you are already logged in and after that be able to double click on any part of the page to edit it directly.
