OtakuThemes Dashboard

After activating HiAnime, a new OtakuThemes menu item appears in your WordPress admin sidebar. This is the central control panel for all theme settings — replacing the traditional WordPress Customizer for most options.

The dashboard is divided into tabs, each dedicated to a specific area of the theme. Use the sidebar links below to navigate to each tab's documentation.

Save Changes

Each tab has its own Save button. Make sure to save after making changes in each tab — switching tabs without saving will discard unsaved changes.
