FIGURE 1-19

15. Once the skin is installed you will see the You’re done screen as show in Figure 1-20. From

this screen click the Preview your new website button to launch the skin editor or the Set up

your new website button to launch the Umbraco backofﬁ ce. This screen also has a collection

of useful links to additional information about getting started working with Umbraco.

You now have everything you need to successfully run, build, and extend Umbraco. Obviously not

all Umbraco installations will ﬁ t into the preceding step-by-step instructions. The remainder of this

chapter covers additional considerations for other installation scenarios and environments.

A NOTE ON SECURITY

One item that some readers will no doubt notice is that the permissions settings

in the preceding manual installation are less than optimal from a security per-

spective. For a production or public-facing website, you will likely make some

additional, more ﬁ nely grained adjustments to a site’s home folder and ﬁ les. The

website

http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/ is a good starting point on what set-

tings to adjust.
