How to Add Authors to Wordpress
Adding authors to a WordPress website is a simple process that can be done in just a few steps. Here's how:
1. Login to your WordPress dashboard.
2. Click on "Users" in the left-hand menu.
3. Click on "Add New" to create a new user.
4. Fill out the required fields, including the username, email address, and password.
5. Set the user role to "Author" from the dropdown menu under the "Role" section.
6. Click on the "Add New User" button to save the changes.
Once the new author has been added, they will receive an email notification with their login credentials. They can then log in to the website and start creating and publishing their own posts.
If you want to assign an existing user as an author, you can simply edit their user profile and change their role to "Author". To do this:
1. Go to the "Users" section in the WordPress dashboard.
2. Find the user you want to make an author and click on their username.
3. Scroll down to the "Role" section and select "Author" from the dropdown menu.
4. Click on the "Update User" button to save the changes.
That's it! Your existing user has now been given author permissions and can start creating and publishing posts on your website.
