Manually adding users
As you are just getting started with Confluence, adding users manually is probably
the way you want to go. Adding users is an option only available to Confluence
administrators or system administrators.
To add a user, navigate to the Administration Console in Confluence
(
Administration
|
Confluence Admin
) and select
users
from the left
menu. As shown in the following screenshot, click on the
Add Users
tab:
While filling out the form there are a few things you have to keep in mind:
• The username must be lowercase and unique to Confluence. If your company
has a username policy, it's best to use this in Confluence too. If there is no
username policy, I like to use
firstname.lastname
as a standard, that is,
arthur.dent
or
ford.prefect
.
