New to managing a website? The two-system setup can feel confusing at first. Here's the simplest way to think about it.

The restaurant analogy

Imagine your website is a restaurant.

  • WordPress is the dining room — the menu, the decor, the specials board. This is what your customers experience, and it's what you'll rearrange constantly.
  • CyberPanel is the kitchen and back office — where supplies are stocked, staff badges are issued, and the building's utilities are managed. Customers never see it, and you only go back there for specific tasks.

You'll spend nearly all of your time in the "dining room" (WordPress). The "back office" (CyberPanel) is for a short, specific list of tasks.

Quick reference: where does my task belong?

  • "I need to change something on my website that visitors will see." → WordPress. This covers pages, blog posts, images, your logo, and menus.
  • "I need to set up an email address for someone on my team." → CyberPanel. See Creating & Managing Email Accounts.
  • "I want to make sure there's a recent backup of my site." → CyberPanel. See Backups: Manual, Download & Restore.
  • "Something looks broken and I'm not sure why." → Start with our FAQ, then contact support if you're still stuck.
    • Not sure which one you need? That's completely normal — search this documentation for your task (press Ctrl+K) and we'll point you to the right place. When in doubt, it's almost always WordPress.
