General

The administration of Shopware 6 is no longer divided into individual windows, this central location shows multiple settings in a clean overview.
To avoid having to switch back and forth between the individual menu items, it is possible to open the administration in parallel in several browser tabs.
Useful tips on how to use the Admin and information on this can be found here in the documentation.
