How to add a new author/user?

With WordPress, you can create multiple users so that different people can enter your WordPress panel and perform tasks ranging from writing a new post to installing new plugins.

To add a new user, log in to WordPress and go to "Users > Add new".

These are the required fields you need to fill:

  • Username: enter the username that will be used as login to the WordPress panel;
  • E-mail: the user's e-mail address;
  • Password: click "Show password" and type an unique password;
  • Role: Admin: Someone that is able to access to all admin features, like installing new plugins, adding new templates and creating new users; Editor: someone who can publish and manage posts and pages, as well as edit posts from other users; Author: someone that can publish and manage their own posts; Contributor: someone who can write and manage their own posts, but not plublish them; Subscriber: someone who can only manage their own profile.

All done! Now, just click "Add new user" to complete the process!
