Join Morten Rand-Hendriksen for an in-depth discussion in this video Adding and managing users, part of WordPress Essential Training.
- Once your site is up and running,…you probably want to either add new users,…or manage existing users, or maybe remove users…that have been registered to your site.…All of this is done from the Users view…within the WordPress Admin Panel,…and you find it by going to the Main Menu here…and selecting Users.…The default view here is an Index View…just like you have with Posts and Pages and everything else…where you get a full list…of all the registered users on your site.…Right now you can see I have two users.…I have the one I created when I set up my site,…that's the one with the username morten…and my full name and email and everything else.…
It's currently set to an Administrator Role,…and it has three published Posts.…In addition, I have another user with the username monster…and the name monster monstere…that I created previously in a course just to show you…that it's possible to switch the author of a post…after you've created it.…Now I want to show you how to add new users to your site.…This can be done either from this index view…
