User Management allows administrators to look up, add, edit and delete users. Select 'users' from the administration console options to open the user search form. Any user with a login will be accessible and manageable via user management - this includes site administrators, content managers and even web site visitors with user accounts. User management can be used to control user rights to web site administrative functions or access to controlled content (if the website is built to utilize page authorization).

User Search Form

The user search form provides the means to look up existing users and to add new users. To add a new user, select the "Add New User" button from this form. To find a user to edit, use the user search form to designate filters and select the 'search' button. The following fields are available to filter the user search results:

  • First Name: the first name of the user
  • Last Name: the last name of the user
  • From Date: will qualify only users that where created following the date entered here. Format of the date is "MM/DD/YYYY".
  • To Date: will qualify only users that where created preceding the date entered here. Format of the date is "MM/DD/YYYY".
  • Email: will qualify only users that have the email address entered here.
  • Active Status: will qualify only users that are 'active' (yes) or 'inactive' (no). Leaving this field to 'All' will qualify all users regardless if they are activated or not.
  • Groups: selecting one or more groups from this listing will only qualify users that belong to the selected group(s).

User Search Results

Submitting the user search form will return a listing of users that qualify for the filter criteria. Sort the results by selected the column headers. If more than 25 users are found fitting your criteria, you will be provided with links to page through these users. Select the edit link next to any user to view/modify the user.
