Connecting to the PrestaShop back-office

...

During the install process, the PrestaShop installer asks you to change the name of your administration folder, from /admin to folder is renamed into something unique to your shop (for instance, /admin789admin7890), for security reasons. Use that new folder name to access your shop (for example: http://myprestashop.com/admin789admin7890).

Info

Up to version 1.5.3, you had to manually rename the /admin folder into something unique to you.

Since version 1.5.4, this is done automatically by PrestaShop. Be careful to memorize that folder name the first time you access it after the installation!

You will see the login page for your shop's control panel.

Enter the e-mail address and password that you registered with when you installed PrestaShop. Click the "Log In" button, and you are taken to the back-office's dashboard, a sort of welcome page for this control panel.

From this step onward, you can begin to configure your shop and sell products to your customers.

Read the next chapter of this user guide, named "First steps with PrestaShop 1.5", to understand all the various sections of the dashboard.
