User Management in WordPress

User Management in WordPress

Introduction

If you want to offer registration process as well as provide access to the website to a huge number of visitors, we will almost certainly need to learn how all of the users should be controlled.

Add new Users

We’ll start by adding an additional user to the WordPress site. This is simply accomplished by entering into the admin panel and then going to Users→Add new.

Then users will be sent to a page called “Create New User,” where you may add a new user by simply putting out a few fields. All the most crucial fields will be covered here because they are clear and linked to the data that each user needs:

• Username –

  The specific username that the brand-new user can use to log in.

  
• Email –

  This user’s corresponding e – mail address.

  
• Send Password –

  The WordPresswebsite would automatically assign the passwords to the client address we specified if we tick this option soon after creating the new user.

  
• Role –

  The role that this user ought to be employing by default.

  

Once you have completed filling out the necessary sections, click the Add New User button at the bottom of the page and add the new user.

Edit or Delete Users

User must go to the Users→All users section in the WordPress admin area in order to modify or delete a user.

As implied by the link’s name, it will take you to a page named Users. The first thing you’ll undoubtedly notice on this page is the table view in the middle, which lists every genuine registered user of the website.

We must find the specific person in the table and drag the mouse pointer over them in order to modify that one user. Then a Modify link will show up, and clicking it will take you to a page resembling the Users Adding page mentioned above, where all of the current information for the user will already be provided as it was added when the user was created, and you may edit it as necessary.

After accessing the Users→All page while in into your admin area, you should simply mouse over the user you want to delete and click the Delete option. Alternatively, you may utilize the Drop-Down list and the checkboxes for the individual user(s) before pressing the apply button at the top of the table view. The Drop-Down and Apply button will be your best options if you need to delete several people.
