Let's tour your Little Big Shop dashboard! #

To access the admin dashboard, simply log in to your account and it will be the first page you land on. This is your central hub for managing your online store. In this help page, we explore the main features of the dashboard and what you can use them for.

Watch the video below to explore the admin dashboard and get a feel for how it works.

Keep reading for a list of the dashboard’s features.

Although it is not officially called the ‘summary’ section, the centre of the dashboard contains highlights of your store’s orders, and monitors your store set-up progress.

Some of the things you will find are:

• Open orders: orders that are yet to be fulfilled
• Orders this week: orders you received this week
• Awaiting payment: orders that are yet to be paid
• To be dispatched: orders that are yet to be sent
• Overdue: invoices you are waiting to be paid

The ‘Set up your business’ and ‘Create your shop’ sections contain steps you need to successfully set up your store.

If there is a green tick next to the step, it means the step has been completed. Click on the button next to each step to go to the feature.

On the left-hand side of the dashboard you can access all of our features:

• Website Builder: our drag-and-drop website builder helps you customise your online store’s appearance and add additional pages
