The back office
Torlann replaces the “classic WordPress plugin” experience through a dedicated boutique space: side menu, content on the right, grouped business actions. This guide describes navigation and what you find there on a daily basis.
Open Torlann
- Log in to WordPress admin with an accountadministrator(or equivalent
manage_options). - In the WordPress side menu, clickTorlann(shop icon).
- You arrive on theDashboardTorlann — full-width interface, separate from the WordPress dashboard.
To thefirst activation, Torlann can redirect you to the dashboard or thegetting started wizard. The system pages (store, basket, customer account) are created automatically.
Screen structure
Each Torlann page (except the immersive wizard) shares the same structure:
| Area | Role |

| Side menu | Navigation between sections (Catalogue, Sales, Tools). The Torlann logo refers to the dashboard. |
| Top bar | ButtonCo-pilot Torlann(aide contextuelle) et bouton×to exit Torlann and return to classic WordPress admin. |
| En-tête de page | Titre, sous-titre optionnel, boutons d’action (ex. : « Voir la boutique », « Ajouter un produit »). |
| Contenu | Tables, forms, KPI cards — depending on the open section. |
Les pages defiche(produit, commande, client, devis) affichent souvent un lien← Retourto the parent list.
