That's it!  You can now log onto your easystore and configure it by clicking on the "admin" link in the upper right hand corner of your store.  Your default login is:

Username: admin
Password: admin

We recommend changing this under the profile options in your admin area for security reasons.


Thank you for choosing The Easy Store!
