How do I get to the Control Panel?

Am I missing something? I've installed jForum on my site but I'm not sure how to get to the Control/Admin Panel.

Did you log into your Jforum instance, then click on the "Admin Panel" link near the bottom of the page?

Immediately after installation you'll be login as Anonymous user. You need to properly login as Admin using the Admin password u provided during installation.

I'm not seeing the "Admin Panel" link at the bottom? Do you guys know the direct link?

Also, I am properly logged in as Admin. If you guys know the direct link to the admin panel page that would be awesome!

See attached screenshot of where the Admin Control Panel link is located on the Jforum page (need to be logged in as an admin user, or you won't see it!)

The direct link is: http://YOUR_SERVER_NAME:8080/jforum_install_name/admBase/login.page

Thanks, for some reason I can't see it in the footer. But the direct link works for me. Thanks again!
