The admin interface

These documentation pages are no longer maintained. Please visit the new documentation site.

The admin interface in eZ publish 3 is where you do all the work on your content. You can say that this is where you build your site. In the admin interface you create and edit articles, add pictures and manage workflows - this is where you manage your site.

The first part you see is the login window. You need to login to get access to this site and only users that have a password and login name can make changes here. You are free to give as many users access to the admin interface as you want.

When logged in you get into the actual interface. You will soon become familiar with the look and feel and how to work here. We have divided the site into five parts: Content, Shop, Users, Set up and Personal to make it easier to find what you are looking for. You will also find the powerful search engine enables your web viewers to better find your content.

User Accounts

I cannot seem to find any information on how to actually add users and permissions. I'm sure it is me, but I have looked pretty hard ...

Ok, found it! (but not with the docs). Part of my confusion as a newbie is the poorly labeled objects: 'username' as labeled on login screens and user accounts vs registration where the 4 fields are First/Last Name, Userid, and Email. Through trial and error, it seems that userid OR email == username. Why not just ask for userid/email?

Follow up...

Is there a full manual available for download?

Thanks!

is the documentation downloadable in a full file as manual

where can i get the full manual?
thanks
