Managing Admin Users

When there is more than one person logging in to your website, it is advisable that you each have your own website administrator login. It prevents unusual occurrences such as being accidentally logged out etc.  Also, it makes it easier to see who has done what in the logs should anything go wrong.
 
  1. Click on the Preference tab in the Administration end of your site
     
  2. Click on the Website Administrators tab
    passwd1
     
  3. This will take you to the Administrator accounts page where all website administrator accounts are listed.  From this screen, you are able to create or delete an account or edit an existing account
    passwd2
     
  4. To create a new account click on the Add New User button on the bottom right-hand side of the list.
    passwd3
     
  5. This will take you to the administrator edit page
    passwd4
     
  6. Enter the Real name of the new website administrator
     
  7. Enter the username – this can be different to the real name
     
  8. Type in the new Password and type it again in the verify password field
    Note: if you are unable to think of a good password, over to the right of the screen is a list of 5 randomly generated passwords, you can select from a different 5 by just clicking on the generate password button.
     
  9. Click Save
     
  10. This will take you back to the Administrator Accounts page where you will see the new account
