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.

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 and Blocks & page builders.
Next step
Pick one workflow and follow it end to end:
- Quick start — wizard, first trip, first booking.
- Trips & catalog — build the catalog you’ll sell.
When you’re ready for gateways and templates, use Payments and Email & notifications.
