User Management

Create users and grant them privileges.

By default, Pixometry has no user accounts, and everybody can do anything in the user-interface. By adding one or more accounts, users have to login for access. There are several privileges to be assigned to user accounts.

Note: The initial user can only be added and saved with "edit" rights on user-management. Otherwise you could lock yourself out and be unable to restore the situation. 

Note: please make sure you have set up a valid SMTP server authentication details in Maintenance and system settings. Otherwise you will be unable to reset the password and potentially lock yourself out.
