Admin Toolbar

The Admin Toolbar displays at the very top of your browser window, above the main Admin area. You also have the option to view the Toolbar at the top of your browser window if you are viewing your live website AND are logged in as a User.

You can decide if you want to see the Toolbar when viewing your website by selecting the option in your User Profile screen. Viewing the Admin Toolbar when viewing the live site enables you to more easily access your Admin for making edits or adding content to your Cadenza website.

Admin Toolbar Tools

About WordPress

At the left-most side of the ToolBar is a WordPress logo. Hover your mouse over the logo to see to About WordPress, WordPress.org, Documentation, WordPress Support Forums, and WordPress Feedback. The top link on that menu is for the “About WordPress” page, which contains tabs for What’s New, Credits, and Freedoms.

My Sites

If you are a single Cadenza subscriber, you will see your site name listed here. If you happen to be a user in multiple Cadenza sites, then you will see all of your sites listed here, letting you toggle between them without having to login to each one.

View Site

In the Toolbar, to the right of the WordPress logo, your site name is displayed as a link. Hover over the site name to see the View Site link to visit the main page of your site.

Customize

+ New

The New link gives you quick access to add new content for many Cadenza areas, such as Posts, Pages, Events, Staff Members, Images, Media, Ensembles, Tickets, Ads, and more. Think of this link as a quick access to all of the “Add New” links found throughout your navigation menu.
