Overview

Wordify's WordPress User Management feature allows you to manage all your WordPress users directly from the my.wordify.com dashboard. This streamlined interface lets you create, edit, and delete WordPress users without logging into your WordPress admin panel.

Accessing User Management

  1. Log in to my.wordify.com

  2. Configure your site from the Sites dashboard

  3. Click on the "WordPress" dropdown in the main navigation

  4. Select "Users" from the dropdown menu

Viewing Your WordPress Users

The Users page displays a table with all WordPress users for your site, including:

  • User ID

  • Username

  • Email address

  • Role assignments

  • Action buttons for editing and deleting users

Creating New Users

To add a new WordPress user:

  1. Click the "CREATE USER" button in the top right corner

  2. Fill in the required information:

    • Username

    • Password

    • Email address

    • Role (Administrator, Editor, Author, etc.)

  3. Click "CONFIRM" to create the user

Editing Users

To modify existing user details:

  1. Click the pencil icon next to the user you want to edit

  2. Update any of the following:

    • Email address - for users who need to change their login email

    • Password - helpful for users who are locked out

    • Role - modify user permissions as needed

  3. Click "CONFIRM" to save changes

Common reasons for editing users:

  • Resetting passwords for locked-out users

  • Updating email addresses for users who have lost access

  • Modifying user roles and permissions

  • Fixing typos in email addresses

Deleting Users

When deleting a user, you'll need to handle their content:

  1. Click the trash icon next to the user you want to delete

  2. Choose another user to reassign the deleted user's content to

  3. Click "CONFIRM" to proceed with deletion

Setting the Sign On User (One-Click Login)

The "WP Admin" button in your Wordify dashboard provides one-click access to your WordPress admin area without entering credentials. By default, this logs you in as the first administrator account. You can change which user is used for one-click login.

How to set the Sign On User

1. Go to WordPress > Users in your site dashboard

2. Find the user you want to use for one-click login

3. Click the pencil icon to edit the user

4. Toggle Sign On User to "Yes"

5. Click CONFIRM

The "SIGN ON USER" column in the users table shows which account is currently selected (displays "Yes").

Why change the Sign On User?

  • Client sites: Login as a client-specific admin account to see their customized dashboard

  • Testing: Access WordPress as different user roles

  • Audit trails: Ensure activity is logged under the correct user account

  • Security: Use a dedicated admin account for dashboard access rather than a shared one

Notes

  • Only one user can be set as the Sign On User at a time

  • The user must have administrator privileges

  • Changing the Sign On User takes effect immediately

Additional Features

  • Search functionality to quickly find specific users

  • Pagination controls for sites with many users

  • Bulk actions coming soon

Tips and Best Practices

  • Always assign a secure password when creating new users

  • Review user roles carefully before assigning administrator access

  • Keep your user list organized by removing inactive accounts

  • Regularly audit user permissions for security
