A Tour of the Dashboard
A guided look at the UiChemy dashboard: the setup wizard, Home, Theme Builder, SEO, Performance, Custom Fields, Module Studio, Form Submissions, Role Manager, White Label, and Settings.
UiChemy keeps everything in one place: a single UiChemy item in the WordPress admin sidebar opens the dashboard. Here's what you'll find there, so you always know where a setting lives.
First Run: The Setup Wizard
The first time an administrator opens UiChemy, a short setup wizard walks you through the basics. It runs inside the WordPress admin, so your normal WordPress menu stays visible.
Welcome
A short intro. Click Get Started to begin.
About you
What best describes you? Pick Designer, Agency / Freelancer, Developer, or No-code / Founder. UiChemy uses this to suggest a starting point.
How you'll use it
How will you use it? Choose Figma Plugin, AI Agent to WordPress, or AI Website Creator. You can switch anytime.
Page builder
Which builder do you build in? Pick Elementor or Gutenberg. Bricks is coming soon. AI Website Creator offers Elementor and Gutenberg.
UiChemy Pro
Want the Pro features too? This step is optional. Install Pro now, or click Skip for now and add it later. It's skipped if Pro is already active.
Connect or Sign in
For the Figma plugin or an AI agent, Connect your WordPress site pairs this site. For AI Website Creator, Sign in to your account instead (skipped if you're already signed in). Click Finish setup to land on Home.
The Dashboard Sidebar
Home sits at the top, above a Manage group holding everything else.
| Menu item | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Home | Pick how you bring a design into WordPress, and connect your site |
| Theme Builder | Create and manage site-wide templates: headers, footers, single post layouts, archive pages, WooCommerce templates, and 404 pages |
| SEO | Meta titles, social previews, schema, sitemaps, redirects, llms.txt, and a site audit |
| Performance | Speed settings for scripts, styles, emojis, and Elementor, plus Fonts and Images (Pro) |
| Custom Fields (Beta) | Create custom post types, taxonomies, and field groups |
| Module Studio (Beta, Pro) | Extend WordPress with your own code or your AI assistant, from a small tweak to a complete plugin |
| Form Submissions | View, filter, and manage entries from your Composer forms. Export is (Pro) |
| Role Manager | Configure access levels for WordPress user roles (Pro) |
| White Label | Replace UiChemy branding with your own company identity (saving requires Pro) |
| Settings | Editor behaviour, builders, the MCP server, features, data, and plugin info |
SEO, Custom Fields, and Module Studio can be switched off in Settings > Features. When a feature is off, its menu item disappears too.

When nothing is needed, the card disappears.
