Welcome to BlockNinja
Learn which BlockNinja surface owns your task: the public site, BlockNinjaCMS, the managed account portal, or an installed plugin before making changes.
Publish something useful in 30 minutes
Create a simple BlockNinja page with a heading and introduction, preview the draft safely, publish it, and verify the live result in one focused session.
Sign in and tour the admin
Sign in to BlockNinja, learn the sidebar and header controls, search for admin destinations, open your site, and find profile or sign-out options.
Core BlockNinja concepts
Understand how sites, pages, blocks, themes, posts, Tables, Views, and plugins fit together so you can choose the right object before making changes.
Drafts, previews, and published content
Understand drafts, temporary previews, live pages, and unpublished changes so you always know what visitors can see and how to recover safely.
Roles and access at a glance
Compare Viewer, Admin, and Superadmin access, choose the least privileged role for each task, and understand how managed SSO roles map into the CMS.
Find anything with the command palette
Use Search anything or Ctrl/Command+K to find admin screens, settings, pages, posts, menus, and tables without opening every sidebar section.
Where everything is in the admin
Find every standard BlockNinja admin destination, understand screen-heading aliases, use header tools, and navigate the same permitted map on narrow screens.
Set up a standalone site
Create the first Superadmin, set public site details, choose optional sample pages, and verify a new standalone BlockNinja site safely.
Set up a managed SSO site
Launch a provisioned BlockNinja site through SSO, confirm your mapped CMS role, and continue normal setup without using the standalone wizard.
