Add City users without a City Blogs account
If the people you want to add don't already have a City Blogs account, you can generate an invitation and e-mail it to them. When they accept the invitation, their City Blogs account will be created and they will be added to your blog. They must have a City IT account.
- Go to your blog Dashboard and Users > Invite Users.
- Choose an invite code. This will be added to the URL you send to users.
- Select the role you want them to have. Please note - as the URL can be forwarded to other City users, select a role you will be happy with them enrolling themselves onto. For a full breakdown of the roles please see the Edublogs guidance on roles.
- Copy the URL that is generated and e-mail to the users you want to add.
- The site they access will ask them to log in using their City IT username and password, and then will direct them to your blog.
If you need to add a batch of users complete the batch create spreadsheet and log a request with the IT Self Service Portal.
