How to Add User to Your Blog?

Do you want to add a user to your wordpress blog? Here are the basic instructions for doing this in WordPress 2.3:

  • Login to your control panel
  • Click Users
  • Scroll down to Add User From Community as shown below
    Add User
  • Fill in the users email address
  • Change the dropdown box to the level of authority you want the new user to have. I have a brief description below. For a full comparison of user roles see the WordPress description.
    • Subscriber – Cannot do anything but read just like a normal visitor
    • Contributor – Write posts but cannot publish them
    • Author – Can write and publish posts
    • Editor – Same as author and can change categories, moderate comments, edit other users posts
    • Administrator – Everything
  • Share/Bookmark
