Learn WordPress: Managing Users

Details

Do you want to learn how to safely collaborate with others while you work on your WordPress website?

Are you not sure what all the different roles are for different members of your WordPress website?

Do you want to know what happens to someone's content if you delete a user?

Let's learn together!

Agenda

8am - Watch https://learn.wordpress.org/workshop/user-management/
8:25am - Discuss content and learnings

In this workshop you’ll learn how to add, edit, and remove users within your WordPress website. This workshop will introduce the user roles that exist within WordPress, but will focus on the how-to of user management, and not the organizational philosophy behind deciding which users are assigned various roles and permissions.

After watching this workshop, viewers will be able to…

Update their own profile
Customize the visible columns in the Users table
Create a new user account
Enable/Disable the ability for users to register their own account
Use the search, filter, and batch modification tools within the users table to find and/or modify existing users
Add and remove permissions (via Roles and Capabilities) for individual users
Reset a user’s password
Disable a user without deleting them
Delete a user
Reassign a deleted user’s content to another user

You'll be able to answer the following questions:
What roles can be assigned to users?
How do you create a new user account?
When deleting a user, what can you do with their existing content?

We hope to see you there!
