# Your WordPress admin (Yatra)

After you install Yatra, open **WordPress admin → Yatra**. You’ll see a modern app with a **sidebar on the left**. This page matches those labels to our guides so you never wonder “where do I click?”

> **Free vs Pro:** Some sidebar items only appear when **Yatra Pro** is installed, the **license** is active, and the **module** is turned on under **Modules**. In the plugin, Pro items often show a small **Pro** badge—same idea as the gold **Pro** labels in this documentation.

## Left sidebar (top to bottom)

WordPress may also show **Upgrade to Pro** under the Yatra menu when you’re on the free plugin—it opens [wpyatra.com pricing](https://wpyatra.com/pricing/) in a new tab.

## What your customers see (front of the site)

Visitors use your **theme** and Yatra’s templates: trip pages, search, **My account**, checkout, cart, and shortcodes/blocks. Those are covered in [Shortcodes](/shortcodes) and [Blocks & page builders](/elementor-integration).

## Next step

Pick one workflow and follow it end to end:

1. [Quick start](/quick-start) — wizard, first trip, first booking.  
2. [Trips & catalog](/tour-booking) — build the catalog you’ll sell.

When you’re ready for gateways and templates, use [Payments](/payment-settings) and [Email & notifications](/email-settings).
