Managing Users

Once a user directory has been created you can add users to the directory. Alternatively, you can add a User Registration form to your web site so users can sign up and be added to a user directory (this is covered later in this chapter).

Creating a New User

To manually create a new user, click the New User button when viewing a user directory.

You will then be shown the user creation form. Enter the details of the user, including their username and password. Click Create User to create the user. They will then appear in the user listing for their corresponding directory.

If your user directory is set to email newly-created users, the new user will now be sent the welcome email.

Note

The user directory must have an email field for this to occur.

Viewing a User

Once a user has been created, click on the user in the user listing to open it in the User Details widget.

The user details widget shows you a summary of the user, with options for editing and deleting the user. Additionally, you can view a list of all emails ever sent to the user by clicking on the Emails tab at the top of the widget.

Editing a User

To edit a user, click the Edit User button when viewing the user. You will then be shown the user editing form. Update any details as required and click Save User Changes.

Deleting a User

To delete a user, click the Delete User button. You will be prompted to confirm deletion. Click the Yes, delete the user button to confirm.
