Users

Blog administrators can use this section to add other users to their blogs and control the level of permissions granted to those users.

Once you add a user by putting their email in the appropriate field, an email will be automatically sent to them asking if they want to accept the invitation. Keep in mind that a user must be a member of Blogs@Baruch already for them to be added to your blog. Once an invited user accepts the invitation, they will show up as a user within your blog with the permissions you specified. Read more about what the different user levels (editor, author, subscriber, etc.) can do here.

The Users -> Your Profile sub-section is where you edit your own profile, such as changing your nickname, changing your password, adding your IM address, and various other personalized options. Here, you can enter your full name and a nickname, choose how you want to be identified when you publish to the blog, add contact information, and change your password.

Publishing Under an Alias
In the Your Profile page, you can also change how your name will appear on the blog.

• Scroll down to the Name section.
• In the Nickname field, replace your full name with your desired alias.
• Then, when you expand the Display name publicly as dropdown menu, you should see your new alias available. Select it, then click the blue Update Profile button at the bottom of the page.
