Add New Users/Manage Users

Only a Community Admin can add new community members. Lingotek organizes all users for a single organization into a Community. Communities generally consist of Linguists, Project Managers, and Community Administrators.

To add new community members,

1. Choose the Community menu at the top of the page and select Community Members.
    

2. Click New Community Member and enter the name and email address of the new user.
   
    Tip: The email address provided will become the new member’s username, and the password will be created by the user the first time they log in.

   2. Check to select the Type of Community Member you would like to create.
       

   3. Leave the boxes unchecked to create a user with Linguist access only, or check the box next to a role to create users with Project Management or Community Administrator access.
       

   4. When you are ready, click Save to add the new user to the system. 

      This will send a welcome email to the new user. From the welcome email, the new user can log in and create their own username and password.
      
       Tip: To create the login name on behalf of the user, uncheck Send Invite, and type in a username and password.
