Creating a second OPS LOGIN

AndrewElliott · 1-11-12, 09:31 AM

Hey all,

How do you create a second ops login.

I'd like someone to have access, without handing over my username / password combo.

Tried Googling it, no luck.

Before you do that, consider that they will have almost the same level of access as you do to change/charge your credit card online within the Powweb setup. If you need to have them access ftp then create a user for that purpose.

This should be the link once you've logged into OPS.

I don't think you can. Seems like we have had this discussion before on here.

We have - http://forum.powweb.com/showthread.p...ight=OPS+login is one example. The link there goes to the same place. Adding a password seemed to cause a problem back in 2009.

It still does today. Maybe a call/chat with support will be able to assist!

If they need access just to the site, you can certainly create an additional FTP user, which will allow them to upload content without access to the control panel. But, unfortunately, there's no way on our systems to create a second user with access to a limited subset of control panel tools.
