WATCH THE VIDEO

The Dashboard is the first page that appears when you log in to Sana Admin. It consists of a customizable set of widgets that display certain data and allow you to navigate to the corresponding Sana Admin areas. It provides real-time data about your webstore health, security, SEO reports, unprocessed orders, pending registrations, blog comments, product ratings and reviews, etc. It is designed so that the most commonly used parts of your Sana Admin, like editing product and content pages, and checking out unprocessed orders, are accessible directly from the homepage.

The dashboard aggregates the most important metrics, so that Sana Admin users can quickly respond to any changes. It is designed to give Sana Admin users the ability to quickly and easily get the relevant data needed to assess business operations.

The dashboard is customizable and flexible to fit your business needs. You can change the position of widgets, simply by dragging and dropping them, remove the unnecessary widget or disable the unnecessary checks to track the data that is most relevant to you.

If you have made any changes to the dashboard and want to revert it to its default state, click dashboard config and then Revert dashboard to default.
