websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first thing you will see when you log in is the Admin Panel. Here you will find all the tools you need such as &#8216;posts&#8217;, &#8216;pages&#8217;, &#8216;media&#8217;, &#8216;users&#8217;, and so on. <br>We will go through the most crucial things to get you started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note: Admin panels may look different depending on the plugins you use, and some widgets may not appear on the dashboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading alignwide\" id=\"h-dashboard\">Dashboard<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The WordPress Admin Panel provides a navigation menu that includes menu options such as Posts, Media Library, Pages, Comments, Appearance Options, Plugins, Users, Tools, and Settings on the left side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/shop-qala.jdj.ac.dev\/documentation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/05\/skarmavbild-2023-05-12-kl-095610-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4587\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading alignwide\" id=\"h-admin-panel\">Admin Panel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Admin Panel contains various types of widgets that can be displayed or hidden on certain screens.
