Dashboard

Your home base — onboarding checklist, counters, and your live site URL.

The Dashboard (/admin (/admin in your admin)) is your home base. It exists to show you what needs attention without you having to click through.

What's on it

  • Welcome banner — first-visit only. Dismiss it once and it stays gone (per browser).
  • Onboarding checklist — three steps that disappear together once all three are done. After they're all green you get a celebration card and a welcome email.
  • Counter cardsNew applications, Available kittens, Public cats, Your site. Each links to the right place.
  • Help link — opens this drawer, or [email protected] for the human kind.

What the counters mean

  • New applications — buyer applications in New status. Highlights in coral when non-zero.
  • Available kittens — public kittens with status Available in a public litter. Hidden ones don't count.
  • Public cats — cats with the public toggle on. The total in the hint includes hidden cats.
  • Your site — your subdomain (yourcattery.densites.com), clicks through to your live home page.

Gotchas

  • The counters are computed each time you load the dashboard. If you change something in another tab, refresh to see the new numbers.
  • The onboarding checklist auto-detects progress — you don't tick the boxes manually. The boxes light up as soon as you do the thing.
