The figure below shows the default login screen for Presto.  Once you have logged in, you will be delivered to the Presto website administration interface, where the Explore Panel and Work Area are displayed. This is commonly referred to as the Presto "backend".

On test or live websites, this is usually accessed by typing the basic website URL followed by "presto.cfm", e.g. http://yourwebsite.com/presto.cfm. When we initially do an installation, we provide clients with a few user IDs and passwords for loging in as content authors and managers.  (You can try out Presto demonstration login accounts here). 

Your browser must be enabled to accept cookies from the Presto website, or you won't be able to login.  Also note that after you enter your password, you have about 10 seconds to submit the form before the password field is automatically cleared, for security reasons.

The "Can't remember your password? link takes you to a form for submitting an email address associated with the account.

If you have any other difficulties with the login process please use the Presto Support Request form.
