Managing Users

Each authorised user receives a username and password which allows them to log in according to their level of access. The Admin user is common to all installations of BamCMS. The details for this user should only be given to the person in charge of controlling all content.

User details can be allocated to more than one person. For example, if you have a page of wholesale price lists you only want accessible by retailers, you can set up one user for all retailers to allow them need to access your website content.

To view a list of all of users currently in your system, click the Manage Users link from the BamCMS Toolbar.

Adding a New User

To add a new user click Add New User located just above the user list, which will take you to a form. Enter the desired username and password, and select the group you’d like the login allocated to by checking the tick box and clicking Add User. Using BamCMS, privileges are assigned to groups rather than individual users, making it easier to add or edit users without the need to allocate privileges to each new user every time. Please see Managing Groups (Page 11) for more details on working with groups.
