To add a new user, you will need ‘super admin’ access. Remember that you should not be creating accounts for team addresses or shared mailboxes. Each account should only be used by one person.
- Go to Users
2. Click [Add new user]
3. Enter individual’s email address
4. Enter a username, using letters and numbers only (no special characters)
5. User role should be subscriber, until they have two factor authentication set up
6. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click [Add new user]
7. The user will be sent an email with a link to set up their password. They may need to check their Junk mailbox if they don’t immediately receive the email. If they are a new user, they will be brought to a page that has a temporary password. They will need to copy this password and then go to the log in screen (yourdomain.org/wp-admin). Once they’ve logged in, they may want to change their password to something else.
8. To finish setting up their account, they will need to enable Two-Factor-Authentication
9. After they have enabled two factor authentication, you can change their role to allow them access.
