WordPress add user
In this chapter, we will look at how to add users to your WordPress blog or website. You will receive an email notification when a user registers on your WordPress blog or website, so you always know when a new user has registered, and you can then go into your dashboard and edit the user's role.
Here are the simple steps to add a user in WordPress.
Step (1) - Click Users → Add New in WordPress.
