Interested in learning more about WordPress User Roles?
Adding a new user to WordPress is easy. In this step-by-step guide, we’ll show you how to add a new WordPress user to collaborate on your website. This can be a (new) teammate or an Online Marketing Agency.
Instead of giving someone your username and password (which is a security-related risk), you can also invite others to create their own user account on your WordPress site. You can then create different custom user roles in order to grant them different permissions depending on what you want someone to be able to do on your site.
Step 1: Log in
- Go to the WordPress
- Log in with your personal details.
Step 2: Add a new user role in WordPress
- Click on ‘Users’ in the left menu.
- Click on ‘Add user’ on the top left
- In the next screen, fill in the form to create a new user.
- Choose which WordPress user role they get. Each user role has its own permissions.
- Click on ‘Add new user’ at the bottom.
Step 3
Done! You have added a new user to your WordPress account.
