First Login

Setup screen

When you visit /admin for the first time (or after a user reset), CometCMS shows the setup screen instead of the login page.

Enter a username and password (minimum 8 characters), then choose the first workspace name (optional custom slug).

Submitting setup creates:

• The initial admin account.
• The initial workspace.
• The default workspace assignment (used as the admin workspace fallback when X-Comet-Workspace is not set).

This admin account is the only account that can access the panel until more users are added.

Admin URL

The admin panel is always available at:

https://yourdomain.com/admin

Logging in

Enter your username and password. Sessions are server-side (PHP sessions stored in cms/storage/sessions/).

After login, you can add more workspaces in Settings -> Workspaces. See Workspaces for routing, isolation, and permission scoping details.

Your profile

Click your name or avatar in the bottom-left corner of the sidebar to open your profile page where you can:

• Upload or remove your profile picture
• Change your display name and email address
• Set a new password (requires entering your current password first)
