Back to the sidebar, you will see di"erent sections with information. Among these you might find
a list including Pages, Categories, Archives, Calendar, and Dates. This is part of the menu or
navigation panel that people will use to move around your site, visiting posts from di"erent
categories or time periods.
Now that we've got the lay of the land down, let's log in to the WordPress Dashboard and have a
look there.
The WordPress Dashboard and
Administration Panel
On the right-side of your blog, in the sidebar, is a section
called Meta. In that section you'll see a link labeled, Site
Admin. Click that link and you'll be whisked away to your
site's Administration login page. Log in to your site using
the user name and password you selected during the
install process.
You can also go straight to the login page by adding /wp-admin to the end of your
site address. For example: http://coolexample.com/wp-admin.
