Cascade’s Dashboard is the first screen you see when you log in. It is a one-stop place for the management of your content, with movable widgets to set your own personal favorites.
Cascade CMS 8 introduces a completely redesigned and reorganized interface, composed of the top menu bar, the asset tree, and the workspace. The menu bar is the dark gray bar across the top portion of the screen. The asset tree on the left displays a hierarchial view of the folders and files that make up your site's content. The right pane of the screen, your workspace, will display whatever you are working on.
To access your account settings, click on the user menu button and then click Settings.
The context menu, accessible by right-clicking on any asset, provides you with a shortcut menu of available actions for that asset. Only actions you have permission to take will be available in the menu.
All assets within the Site Content area support threaded commenting to provide a discussion about the asset.
