Home#

Home tells you what needs you now:

  • A greeting and one line on the state of things — how many stories are waiting for review, or Nothing needs you right now.
  • Finish setting up your site: a checklist that stays until the logo, sections, first story, team, bylines, domain and plan are done.
  • Today's numbers: Published today, Waiting for review and Drafts in progress.
  • Desk, with three tabs: Needs review (oldest first, so nothing waits too long), Latest published and Scheduled.
  • On the right, what's on the Breaking news ticker and the stories published in each language.
  • Newsroom log: what your team wrote, sent and published lately.
  • Media storage: how much of your plan's space your pictures and PDFs use.

Editors and up also see today's ePaper, with a link to open it.

The menu on the left is grouped the way a newsroom works: Newsroom (articles, breaking news, ePaper, media, videos, gallery, categories, bylines), Growth (analytics, ads, integrations, subscribers, workflows) and Website (appearance, pages, languages, domains). Team, Billing and Settings sit at the bottom.

  • Click your site's name at the top to switch to another publication you belong to, or to Create another publication.
  • The number next to Articles is how many stories are waiting for review.
  • At the bottom, your name and photo open your profile; the icon beside them signs you out.

Press ⌘K on a Mac or Ctrl+K on Windows — or / — to open the command palette. Type where you want to go or what you want to make, and press Enter.

Shortcuts are ignored while you're typing in a field, and only open screens your role and plan include.

Notifications#

The bell at the top shows what happened while you were away. You're never notified about your own actions.

  • A story was submitted for review — to editors, admins and owners.
  • Your story was published, or a scheduled story went live — to the story's author.
  • Someone joined the team — to everyone.
  • A message from one of your workflows — to owners and admins.

Unread shows only what's new; Mark all as read clears the dot.

Help on every screen#

On a computer, the ? button at the top right opens this manual on the page for the screen you're on, already set to your role.

Language and dark mode#

  • The globe icon changes the dashboard's language — 22 Indian languages and English. It changes the menus and buttons you see, not your website; screens that aren't translated yet stay in English.
  • The moon and sun icon switches the dashboard between light and dark.
  • Both are remembered on this browser.
