How to Get Support for Your Pantheon Site:
Site Owners who opt to use the Pantheon hosting service should have the technical knowledge and skills to create their own accounts and build and maintain their own sites.
Neither Pantheon nor Web Platform Services provide support for basic Drupal or WordPress questions or other issues unrelated to the Pantheon hosting service, unless you have a managed Open Berkeley site. If you do, please see the Open Berkeley Editors Guide, Site Builders Guide, and related guides.
