Time for action - creating users
As you have come to expect, this is really easy.
1. Click on the Employees tab and then click on the Add new link.
2. Enter the Last name, First name, and E-mail address of your new employee or user.
3. The status box enables you to allow or disallow access to the new employee. Unless you have a reason for creating an account and not letting them use it, select the check mark (Allow). If you have reason to want to stop your new employee or user accessing your control panel, simply come back here and click on the cross.
4. In the Profile drop-down box, choose Administrator. This will give the new user full access. We will investigate when this is a good idea and when you might like to change this, if you would like to add our freelance writer next.
5. Click the Save button to create the new user account.
What just happened?
The new user can now log into the control panel and perform any task.
