Logging in and out

How to log in

If an administrator has created an account for you, you can visit yourdomain.gov.uk/user to log in. You'll need to know your:

• username
• password

Reset your username or password

If you don't know your username or password you can click the link "Reset my password" and enter your email address. The system will send you an email containing a one-time link allowing you to reset your username and/or password.

If you don't know which email address is associated with your account, contact your website administrator.

Cancelling your account

When you need to cancel your account, visit your profile page by clicking "My account" when you are logged in. If you are presented with the following options, be careful to choose "... " as the alternative can delete significant amounts of the website.

How to log out

When you are logged in, you will see the admin menu along the top of the website. The logout button appears in the top right, next to the button marked "My Account".

Alternatively, you can visit yourdomain.gov.uk/user/logout to be logged out.

Note: you may have a single username and password for all the microsites (on a single control site) you are a member of.

Control site

Use the control site only for central operations, such as creating and deleting microsites. We do not recommend editing microsite content, etc from the control site, as things can get confusing!

Microsite

Microsite administration menu

The Microsite administration menu shows the administration tasks required to manage your site.

Note: the above items are available for Microsite admins, a Microsite editor has fewer items available.

You can access the microsite administration menu from the main admin toolbar.

If this is hidden, toggle the "Manage" menu item to reveal it.
