Users MUST have an account created on sites.udel.edu before they can be added to your WordPress site.
Site administrators can add new users by following these steps.
-
From your site’s Dashboard, select Users → Add New.
-
In the Add Existing User section, type the user’s complete UD email address (UDelNetID@udel.edu) in the Email or Username field.
-
Select the appropriate Role for the user. (See WordPress User Roles for more information.)

If you require a large number of additional users, submit a service request form or email askit@udel.edu.
Retired Faculty
Retired faculty or other members of the UD community who are not current faculty, staff, or students, can request access to WordPress through this form.
Adding Guest Accounts
Guests who need access to WordPress will need a sponsored guest account. More information on how a user can create a guest account can be found in the article Sponsor Canvas@UD and WordPress@UD Guest Accounts.
Once a guest account is created, you must create a WordPress account for it by following the instructions to create a personal account. Site administrators can then add the account to sites, or if you need assistance being added to sites you previously managed, you may submit a service request form or email askit@udel.edu.
