Setting Up Users on the Website
Learn how to easily set up user accounts on your website and manage permissions effectively to enhance user experience and security.
If you plan on having multiple people work on your yearbook project, you will want to add them to the account so they can login with their own username and password. Follow the instructions below to learn how to add new yearbook staff members.
1. Select Manage Users from the Manage drop-down menu in your main account dashboard:

2. Click on the green Create New User button. (You will also see a list of existing users here.)

3. This page will have you fill out user information and manage the their access. NOTE: You can come back to edit this after creating the user, but only until they have logged in once. After that the only way to edit the user information is for them to sign in and edit from Profile.

- User ID: Assign a unique name which identifies the staff member (we recommend using an email address).
- Name: User name, first and last.
- Email: The email address that is associated with the User.
- Phone Number: The best contact phone number.
- Password: Assign a unique password for your staff member.
- Confirm Password: Re-enter the assigned password.
- User Status: Select the status of Approved User for your staff member. (Note: If at any time you need to change the status from Approved to Rejected, you can update that status in Manage Staff/Users.)

User Type: Select whether the member will be an Administrator, Editor or Staff User. The difference between these staff types is their access level. (You can adjust the permissions for Editors and Staff to your preferences in the Manage Permissions tab.) Default permissions are:

Administrator: Have complete access to everything.
Editors: Can design pages, upload photos and access the collaborate tab.
Staff User: Can only upload and view photos.
4. Click Save User & Add New User to keep adding staff, or click Save User if you are finished adding staff members at this time.
