|
|
||
| The following buttons are found above the lefthand navigation menu on every environment in the site dashboard: | ||
|
|
||
| - **Visit `Environment` Site**: Where `Environment` is a placeholder for the active environment you're currently looking at in the dashboard, such as **Visit Test Site** or **Visit Development Site** etc. This will open the homepage of your site for the given environment in a new tab. | ||
|
|
||
| - **Site Admin**: This will open your sites admin login page for the given environment in a new tab. If you're not already logged into your sites admin interface, this button will open `/user/login` for Drupal and `/wp-login.php` for WordPress. Once you've logged in and have an active admin session, this button will take you to `/user` for Drupal and `/wp-admin` for WordPress. | ||

| By default, the buttons described above will open links that are served via their respective [platform domains](/guides/domains/platform-domains) (e.g., `test-example.pantheonsite.io`). If you want these buttons to open your site using your own custom domain instead (e.g., `test.example.com`) you can connect a [custom domain](/guides/domains/custom-domains) then configure it as the [primary domain](/guides/domains/primary-domain) for the target environment. This is typically only done for the Live environment as part of launch however you can do this anytime for any environment based on your preferences and requirements. | ||

There was a problem hiding this comment. Probably not worth overloading this note but WordPress multisites break if you set a platform domain, so this can't actually be done (or shouldn't) for WordPress multisites that host multiple domains (even for live environments). There was a problem hiding this comment. We could warn about that in the primary domain doc that's crosslinked in this note? https://docs.pantheon.io/guides/domains/primary-domain There was a problem hiding this comment. @jazzsequence can you review the latest commit when convenient? a2190f3 |

Nit: would probably prefer replacing the old screenshot or renaming the new one (e.g.
site-dashboard-2024.png) rather than adding an underscore. What happens with the next redesign? And the next? etc. It sets a precedent that I don't think we'd want to perpetuate in the future.There was a problem hiding this comment.

I'll rename this to
../images/dashboard/new-dashboard/2024/site-dashboard-2024.pngas suggestedI don't feel strongly about the renaming convention so long as the name is changed then we'll get the fresh version.
For background though, I added
2024subdir to the path in an earlier PR which contained mostly the same images just with the nav cropped out based on PDEs recommendations, in a follow up PR I generated fresh screenshots from the product with the new nav shown for context and added_to the filenames because it was an easy modifier to do a search and replace for and I had already done the2024modifier previously in the folder structure
