Adding a New User

Use Add New User to create a new CMS user account.

The controls you see depend on your CMS permissions. Users with restricted permissions may not be able to access all features.

To add a new user:

1. Open the User Manager from the System accordion in the console.
2. Click the Add New User button.
3. Select an Icon for the user.
4. Enter the user's First Name and Last Name.
5. Enter a User Name.
6. Enter the user's Email address.
7. Check Send invite to new user if the user should receive an email with instructions for setting up a password.
8. Click Save.

The Add New User view contains the profile fields required to create a CMS user.

When creating a new user, the initial form shows the User Profile tab. System Permissions and Page Permissions are configured after the user exists, unless you create the user from a permission template.

If you create the user without a template, save the profile first. Then reopen the user to assign permissions.

If you select a permission template before saving, the new user is created with the permissions from that template.

The User Name and Email fields must be unique.
