user sign up<br />

Typically, adding users manually is great for controlled<br />

environments such as small businesses, organizations, or<br />

clubs where users are "known."<br />

For each user group that is created, a group of users can be<br />

added to each user group by manual entry or import from a<br />

comma-delimited text file by the web manager.<br />

It's possible to use either one user login (everyone uses the<br />

same login) or create a login per user for more user control<br />

(e.g., for membership lists).<br />

Conversely, user sign up is intended for more public<br />

access where controlling users is impractical—the user can<br />

simply register then sign in using their login credentials.<br />

The web manager still has the option to manage those<br />

users within their groups via the <strong>User</strong> List Smart object.<br />

This method requires an on-screen login box to be placed<br />

on the page (normally a master page).<br />

You can add more than one user to the same user group. The same<br />

user can belong to multiple user groups.<br />

To add a user manually:<br />

1. Click the Smart Object Tool button on the Web Objects<br />

toolbar.<br />

2. With your <strong>User</strong> List Smart object selected in the My Smart objects<br />

Library pane, click the object's Manage button to reveal the <strong>User</strong>s<br />

dialog.<br />

3. From the Add New <strong>User</strong> section at the bottom of the dialog, enter the<br />

user's email address in the Email box.
