Dashboard
When you log in to the CMS you are taken to the dashboard. Consider the dashboard to be your home area in the CMS; it provides an overview of your recent actions, notifications and site content. The dashboard is comprised of widgets (tools) with a configurable layout so you may add, remove and rearrange the widgets to best suit your needs.
