With our new release, the KORONA CLOUD back office has been replaced by KORONA.studio. The user interface is similar to the old back office but there a few things that have changed.

First you will be prompted to set a new password the first time you log in. Then you can log in again as you usually do. The logout, the package overview, the support request, etc. can still be accessed via the user name. This is now displayed in the navigation bar on the left.

In the dashboard, the widgets are no longer moved using drag and drop, they are now moved using the ‘Change Order’ Button.

For users with the Plus package, the global selection of the organization has moved from the header to the navigation bar. A new menu item via dashboard is used for this.
