This page explains how to log into and out of the Joomla! administrator (commonly called Back-End) interface of a Joomla! powered website. You can only log in to the Administrator interface if you have administration or back-end privileges.

How to Log In[edit]

The Administrator interface (application) can be reached by appending the word administrator to the URL of your site. For example, if you usally access your web site on:

http://www.example.com/
 
 then go to http://www.example.com/administrator to access the Administrator panel

How to Log Out[edit]

Logging out will return you to the Administrator login screen. If the Logout link is greyed out and nothing happens when you click on it, then you are probably in a screen where you have some resource locked for your exclusive use. Click the Cancel toolbar button first to release the resource, then click on the Logout link.
