  • Admin Username: Your new MODX username (for security reasons do not use the “Administrator” or the “Admin” username.)
  • Admin Password: Use a strong password.
  • Admin Email: Your e-mail address.


Note: Copy the admin username and password on a notepad because you will need these login details to access the admin area of your MODX Website.
