# A tour of the admin panel

> Everything in your website's admin panel, menu by menu — so you always know where to find a setting.

Your admin panel has a menu on the left and the screen you are working on to the right. On a small screen, the menu folds into icons — hover over an icon to see its name.

## Dashboard

The first screen after you sign in shows:

- **Your plan** — when it started, the **days left** and how much of the year is used, then **what your plan allows and how much you use**: pages, image galleries, video galleries and storage, and whether the mega menu is included, with any add-ons listed below. In the last 30 days a reminder appears; **Manage subscription** opens your NijeesWeb account in a new tab, where you renew, upgrade or buy add-ons.
- **Counts** of your pages, blog posts, blog categories, galleries, banners, testimonials, forms and form enquiries. Each card opens that section.
- **Recent Form Enquiries** — the latest messages from your website's forms.
- Shortcuts to **Manage Pages**, **Manage Blogs**, **Media**, **Settings** and **Visit Website**.

## Saving, and never losing work

Every edit screen has a **save bar** fixed to the bottom of the window. It reads *All changes saved.* until you change something, then *Unsaved changes*, with two buttons:

- **Save changes** — or press <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>S</kbd> (<kbd>⌘</kbd> + <kbd>S</kbd> on a Mac).
- **Discard** — or press <kbd>Esc</kbd>; you are asked to confirm first.

If you click a link or menu item with unsaved changes, a dialog asks what to do: **Save & leave** (<kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>S</kbd>), **Yes, leave** (<kbd>Y</kbd>) to throw the changes away, or **No, stay here** (<kbd>N</kbd>). Closing the tab shows your browser's own *Leave site?* box instead.

> [!TIP]
> Keep a second tab open on your live site and refresh it after saving to see exactly what visitors see.
