Managing Users

In Chapter 2, Structuring Content Types, we learned how content is stored as a type, about content types, the fields that comprise them, and how to create a custom content type.

This chapter is all about the reason for having a Drupal site, or any website for that matter: users.

If no one were accessing the site's content, there would be little reason for having the site, right? However, not all access is alike. You're going to learn about user types and how Drupal provides a way for you to ensure that no one has more access than they require. More specifically, this chapter covers the following topics:

  • User types
  • User roles
  • User permissions
  • Creating a user
