Accessing the content management area

You can access the content management area through the top Admin bar.

Using the Admin bar at the very top, click on Manage then click Content.

Notice how the style of the main area of the site has now changed. You are still logged in, but rather than seeing the content of your site as a site visitor would see, you are now viewing what is called the Admin interface.

This is where you will be performing most of your day-to-day tasks as a content administrator.
