The PrestaShop back-office is the name used to describe the administration panel of your PrestaShop install site in this user-guide. You will spend most of your time in this panel, as everything that the user sees is handled directly from through the back-office: adding/editing/removing products, handling carriers, building packs, creating vouchers, keeping contact with customers, improving your shop, etc.

At the install process, the PrestaShop installer asked asks you to change the name of your administration folder, from /admin to something unique to your shop (for instance, /admin789), for security reasons. Use that new folder name to access your shop , (for instance example: http://myprestashop.com/admin789).
