Run the Setup Wizard first If you're the first admin of a brand-new org, you'll land on the **Setup Wizard** at `/org-setup` instead of the dashboard. It walks you through identity, social handles, ingestion method, goals, audience, publishing behavior, and brand voice in a guided flow, then offers optional advanced steps for competitors, team invites, Telegram, approval workflow, and RSS feeds. Complete the core steps to reach the dashboard; you can revisit skipped advanced steps later. See [Onboarding Wizard](/thecontentforge-docs/getting-started/onboarding-wizard.md) for the full breakdown. ### 1. Sign in Go to the login page and enter the email you used to request access. You'll land on the **Dashboard**. ### 2. Tour the sidebar The left nav is grouped roughly by purpose: * **Content** - Dashboard, Calendar, Content Forge, Video Forge, Image Forge, and ForgeSays * **Intelligence** - Market Signals, On-Chain Intelligence, and Content Optimization * **Operations** - Asset Library, Knowledge Base, and Data Ingestion * **Settings** - General, Team Members, My Account, and Telegram controls * **Support** - Report issues, request help, or send product feedback Investor Intel users sign in to a separate app rather than this content sidebar, and student workspaces see a reduced sidebar without the Intelligence hubs. See [Navigation and Hubs](/thecontentforge-docs/getting-started/navigation-and-hubs.md) for the full map. ### 3. Set your brand voice Open [Brand Voice](/thecontentforge-docs/feature-guides/brand-voice.md) and define your voice profile. Content Forge and Video Forge use this on generation, so the better this is, the better your drafts. ### 4. Generate something Open [Content Forge](/thecontentforge-docs/feature-guides/content-studio.md), pick a generation mode, and produce your first batch of drafts. If you work from long-form content, upload a video in [Video Forge](/thecontentforge-docs/feature-guides/video-studio.md) and generate platform-specific outputs from the transcript. ### 5. Get your data flowing (Editor+) If you're an Editor or Admin, head to [Data Ingestion](/thecontentforge-docs/feature-guides/data-ingestion.md) and upload your last 7 days of platform analytics. You can also connect profiles in [My Account > Social Connections](/thecontentforge-docs/feature-guides/social-connections.md) if you are an owner or Admin. Dashboard and Patterns sharpen as more data lands. ### 6. Pick your language (optional) The app is available in 8 languages. A globe-icon picker lives in the top bar of the public site, and there's a language dropdown on your **Settings** page and in the account menu. Your choice is saved in your browser. See [Languages](/thecontentforge-docs/feature-guides/languages.md). ### 7. Collapse the sidebar (optional) The sidebar can be collapsed to give content more room - click the collapse handle next to the logo. On mobile, the sidebar lives behind a hamburger menu in the top bar. ### 8. Bookmark the help Help links live at the bottom of the sidebar: **FAQ** and **Help Docs**, alongside this site. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://thecontentforge.gitbook.io/thecontentforge-docs/getting-started/first-login.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
