Sign in to edit your site. You sign in on a page of your own site, then browse it with the toolbar on top. Every page you open is ready to edit. Who can do this: anyone Fetchski has given access to your site. Once you’ve signed in the first time, an Admin gives you a role.

Before you start

  • Fetchski gives you access. Fetchski sets up who can sign in to your site. You sign in with your Fetchski account, or with the username and password Fetchski gives you. If you’re new, ask your site’s Owner to request access for you, or contact Fetchski Support.
  • An Admin gives you a role. After your first sign-in, you appear in People & Roles. An Admin or Owner then gives you a role, such as Editor. Until then, you can sign in but you can’t change anything. See People & Roles.
  • Know your site’s address. You sign in at your site’s address followed by /cms-login. Put your own address in front: Parker’s Puppy Playland, for example, would use parkerspuppyplayland.example/cms-login. Not sure of your address yet? Ask your site’s Owner or Fetchski for your sign-in link.

Sign in

1

Open the sign-in page

Go to your site’s address followed by /cms-login. The page shows the Fetchski Attract logo, with your business’s logo and name under it once they’re set in Site settings.

Sign in

Use whichever way your site offers:
  • With your Fetchski account: choose Sign in with Fetchski, then sign in on the Fetchski page that opens. You come straight back to your site. This button only appears when your site uses single sign-on, which lets you use your Fetchski account instead of a separate password for this site.
  • With a password: type the Username and Password Fetchski gave you, then choose Login. Your username isn’t your display name, and changing your display name doesn’t change how you sign in.

Start working

Your site opens with the toolbar across the top. Choose Edit in the bar under it to change the page you’re on.
  • No toolbar? Viewers, and people who don’t have a role yet, only see the site. Ask an Admin or Owner to give you the role you need.

Log Out is at the bottom of your own menu.

If you signed in with your Fetchski account, signing out also signs you out of Fetchski. Sign out when you finish on a shared computer.

What happens next

  • Your role decides what you see. Editors, for example, don’t see Connections or People & Roles. See What each role can do.
  • Find your way around. Take the tour, or press ⌘K (Ctrl+K on Windows) to open the command palette.
  • Make it yours. Add your name and photo in Personal Settings.

Troubleshooting

You signed in to Fetchski, but your account doesn’t have access to this site. The sign-in page shows:“Your Fetchski account isn’t authorized for this site. Contact your administrator if you believe this is a mistake.”Ask your site’s Owner to request access for you, or contact Fetchski Support. If you work on more than one site, check that you’re on the right site’s address.
After several tries in a short time, sign-in pauses for a little while. The page shows:“Too many sign-in attempts. Please wait N seconds and try again.”Wait the number of seconds shown, then try again with care. Check that Caps Lock is off.
The sign-in page has no reset link. If your site offers Sign in with Fetchski, use it instead: it doesn’t need your site password. Otherwise, contact Fetchski Support to reset your password.Once you’re signed in, you can change your password in Personal Settings.
You don’t have a role yet, or your role doesn’t include editing. Ask an Admin or Owner to give you a role in People & Roles. See People & Roles.
