Setting the Add Users dialog box options

The purpose of the Add Users dialog box is to add users to websites that use the User Directory service to manage users.

  1. Select a role for the users you want to add from the Role for the new users pop-up menu.

    The role you assign determines the editing permissions the new users have for modifying the site’s pages.

  2. Add users to the role you selected.

    The Search Results panel lets you locate users in your organization’s user directory and add them to the list of users for the role you’ve selected. Do the following to find and add user names to a role:

    1. Enter a name in the Search text box, and click Search. Contribute displays the closest matches it finds in the Search Results list.

    2. Select the name of the user you want to add to the role, and click Add to move that user to the list of Users to add.

    If you inadvertently add a user to a role, you can remove that user by selecting their name in the Users to add list, and clicking Remove.

  3. (Optional) Select Send connection key e-mail to users to send an e-mail to the users you’ve added to the role.

    Contribute creates a single e-mail message with a connection key attached that you can send to the users.

    You can also have users type connect:server domain name (where server domain name is the name of the server where CPS is installed) in the Contribute browser address bar to connect to the website.
  4. Click OK.

    Contribute adds the specified users to the website and sends them an e-mail that contains the connection key.
