Most of you probably know this already, but I thought I would share just in case anyone finds it helpful.

If you are like me, you probably sign in to the back-end of your website through the SiteRubix Manager page. I've been working on my website a lot recently, and sometimes I was having to click through several times a day. When I started looking for a shortcut to bypass this, I discovered something cool.

If you have already signed in to your website recently, you stay logged in for about a day. So to get to your dashboard, all you have to do is navigate to the following URL:

[yourwebsite].com/wp-admin

BOOM, you are into your Dashboard.

Now, an even faster way to do this is if you also have your password saved. It might be a good idea to keep a copy of it somewhere on general principle, just as a backup so you can't get locked out.

It's a random string of letters and numbers for maximum security, and I don't suggest changing it.

Instead, you should get your hands on a password keeper like LastPass. I have been using their program for the last year or so, and trust me, it will change your life. I truly don't need to keep space in my brain for passwords anymore.

If someone asks me for my WiFi password my answer is inevitably, 'I have no idea! Let me check.' So if your passwords are getting out of hand and you're constantly getting locked out, you should check into a password saver as soon as possible.

That's it for today. Hope you found this tip helpful. Have a great day! :)
