Logging into the backend

- Now you should see a Login form.
- Enter the following data:
Security code: Enter the 4 character long number and letter mix as displayed by the system.
User name: Enter the user name you have chosen when you installed the system.
Password: Enter the password you have chosen when you installed the system. - Make sure you complete all the additional data under "Administration -> Global Configuration" in the navigation bar to the left.
Modules and Themes - flexible and extendable
The buildup of Contrexx is based on those four elements:
- Core System
- Themes
- Modules
- Content
Themes are XHTML files and define the layout of your website. In the XHTML source there are placeholders which then get replaced by the system.
There are a lot of Themes available on contrexxthemes.com.
Modules on the other hand are programmed in PHP and contain the logic of the system.
