Deleting Users
How do I delete a user?
You have several options for
deleting a user. To ensure that
no content is disturbed, select
Disable the account and keep
its content.
14
Deleting Users
How do I delete a user?
Checking this box means that
the user cannot be deleted until
a confirmation email from the
user is received. We suggest
leaving this box unchecked.
15
Deleting Users
What is the difference between deleting and blocking a
user?
Blocking a user stops them from being able to log in, but
keeps their account in your system and doesn’t give you any
options about their content.
Deleting a user gives you more options, like the ability to
delete the user and their content, or just disable their
account and keep the content.
Blocking a user should be for temporary account disabling,
while deleting a user should be for permanent account
changes.
16
A Note on Users – editor user
The editor user is automatically created on your site. This
user is associated with all content pulled from the NPR API.
Never delete or edit this user in any way, as that will
negatively impact your site.
