Setting Up Site Users
When you've chosen to restrict access of a section to Site Users you'll need to create some users.
Once you have restricted access to a section, you'll need to create a page within that section; go to the admin page for the section. Click on the Add new page button (yellow function button strip) to make a new page. Give it a title, add some content, click save.
At the top of the main page content you'll see a row of tabs labeled Main (where you are initially), Users, Admins, Newsletter and Comments. Click on Users.
Assign Existing User
Enter the email address of any previously-created site user here.
Assign New User
Display Name
is the users' name as it will appear on the site.
Can Edit
Edit allows the user you are creating to edit pages in this section. They will be able to access publicly editable content on this page (NB; standard pages do not have publicly editable fields, this is for specialist page-types only).
View Only is the default (for fairly obvious reasons) and allows the user to view pages in the restricted section, but not make any changes to them.
Username (email address)
Weblobe users are always identified by their email addresses, because people tend to be able to remember their email address. They're unique names and provide a convenient way of getting in touch with them when they loose their passwords.
Password
The password that the user will have to enter in order to see page in the restricted section.
Click Submit and the user is added.
A list of users who can access a page is shown at the bottom of the User tab of the page in question. You can also edit a users details and click the Send Welcome Email to mail them their password.
Re-using Users
Once someone has been set up as a site user for one page you can easily grant them access to any other restricted page, simply by going to that section in the admin system, clicking the Users tab and adding the users' email address to the Assign Existing User field.
