Don’t want to work on your site alone? Your site can have multiple administrators, editors, authors, and contributors. You can invite others to help manage your site and the content. The only requirement is that they need a UCInetID and password to log in.
Add an Existing User
Since moving to CampusPress, the method of adding new users has changed slightly. If a person already has an account on faculty.sites.uci.edu, you can quickly add them using the Add Existing User method. You can try this method first. If they don’t have an account, you will see a message letting you know “The requested user does not exist.”
(UCI Sites, sites.uci.edu, is a different network. Your users will need an account on Faculty Websites to be able to be added to your Faculty site.)
Add a New User
If they don’t have an account, there are two ways to add them.
1. Ask them to login to create an account
Ask the person or people you want to add to login to Faculty Websites. They can use the Login link at the top and log in with their UCInetID and password. This will create an account for them, but they will not yet be a member of any site. Once they have an account, simply use the Add an Existing User method. If their account was created, it will be easy to add them.
2. Invite Them
You may also use the Invite Users option under the Users admin menu. From here you can create a link that you can send to the people you want to invite. This method is more simple if you have multiple people you want to add with a specific role.
We have documented all of this in our Help Center in more detail.
