If you want to change the basic configuration of your website you have to log into the backend: Just add /admin to your website's URL, e.g. https://domain.tld/admin and use the username and password that you defined during the installation process.
The Backend now appears like this:
The WebsiteBaker administration with the template
As you can see, there are two identical navigation areas. The first one is placed as a horizontal menu in the header area of the page. The second is placed right beneath. A click on the symbols or text links gets you directly to the desired functions. Furthermore there are four more symbols and the current version number of WebsiteBaker placed in the upper right corner.
If the backend does not appear in English, you can change the language very easily. There are two possibilities: setting the language for the whole WebsiteBaker installation or for the individual user.
- To change the language for the complete installation: "Settings -> Default Settings -> Language"
- To change the language for a certain user: "Preferences -> My Settings -> Language"
