Adding Authors

Every publication project in Typemill can feature its own author or a group of authors. This capability enables you to allocate responsibilities, oversee permissions, and allow contributors to concentrate on their specific assignments — without interfering with others.

Creating New User Accounts

To add authors, navigate to the System section in the top menu and open the Users option on the left side. Here you can see all current users and create new accounts.

Click on “Add New User” and first choose a role for the author. Typically, it is advisable to assign the “editor” role to an author, granting them complete editing privileges for the content while restricting access to system settings and other projects.

After selecting the role, complete the form with all necessary information, including username, first name, last name, email, password, profile image, description, and more.

Limiting Access to Projects

Lastly, you should limit access to particular projects. To achieve this, input the project ID — for instance, training. If the author is involved in several projects, you can list all project IDs here, separated by commas. Should the project involve multiple authors, simply create additional users in the same manner.

With this arrangement, each author only has access to their designated projects within the editor. All other projects and pages remain concealed and inaccessible.
