How to Create a New User in WordPress (Step-by-Step Tutorial)

Need to create a new user in WordPress or reset someone’s password?

In this step-by-step tutorial, I show you exactly how to add a new user inside the WordPress dashboard, choose the correct user role, and securely reset passwords when needed.

You’ll learn:

• How to log into wp-admin
• Where to add a new WordPress user
• What each WordPress user role actually does
• When to use Administrator, Editor, Author, Contributor, or Subscriber
• How to reset a user’s password properly

If you’re working with developers, content writers, WooCommerce customers, or staff members, understanding user roles is critical for security and site management.

This tutorial works for standard WordPress installs, and also covers how plugins like WooCommerce introduce additional roles such as Customer and Shop Manager.
