Users

We've created the roles specific to our site and assigned to them the permissions that grant them the access that they need. The only thing we're missing now...are users. Each user needs an account. Where do they come from?

There are three ways that most users obtain a Drupal account:

  • A user with permissions to create a user account does so on the user's behalf
  • The user registers for an account
  • The user obtains an account via single sign-on (SSO), such as through a Facebook account

Of these, the latter method is out of scope for this book, as it is a more in-depth administrative topic. Let's take a look at the other two.
