Adding a New Admin User

WordPress allows you to add new users to your website, and there are various preset roles you can assign for them.

The “admin” user role grants the highest privileges, and admin access is needed to modify website settings. Because of this, if you are working with us (or another web developer) one-on-one, we may ask you to give us admin access. Here’s how you do it!

Note: Use caution when adding a new admin user to your website, as they will have access to the entire back-end of your website.

HOW TO DO IT:

  1. After logging in, navigate to Users >> Add New
  2. Fill out the information for the new user and in the “Role,” select “Administrator”:
