Q. How do I add other administrators/users to my site?
A. After logging in, select the "preferences" link from the
upper right part of your site. From the next page, click on the
word "admin" in the sentence "You are an admin user."
To the right, there is a form that will let you create another user/password combination.
If you check the "edit" box, these users will have the ability to
create people, delete anything, edit any people that are currently in
the database; however, they will not have the ability to create new
users or upload GEDCOM files. If you do not check the "edit" box, these
users will only have the ability to view your protected records, and
not edit anything.
Be sure to enter a user's email address in case they forget their password, then they can have a new one sent to them.
Also note the "Restrict Date" field. Whatever date you put in here will be the date after
which records can be viewed. For instance, if you put in
1950-01-01, that means your new user will have the ability to only see
people who were born before that date and anyone born after that date
will still be a restricted record to them. This does not affect
your sitewide date of protection (which by default is 1910-01-01).
