Click on the "manage users" tile from your J2launchpad.

Adding a single user
To add a user, click the plus button above the user data table:
You will be taken to a sub-menu, which prompts you to enter the user information:
Begin by creating a username. This will be the username the user will use to access the site, and attributed to any work.
Next, create a password. Passwords can be a simple or as complex as you like - shorter passwords can be used for younger learners. The user can change their password at any time.
You might like to assign the user to a class at this point, although this can be done later if preferred.
Determine the user type (teacher or pupil) before clicking "add user". The username will now be available to use.

Changing user passwords
To change a user password, select the user using the tick box. (You can also select multiple users) Click the "reset password" button:
Here you will be prompted for your user password (to authenticate the password change).
Now input the new password, and confirm it by typing a second time (Passwords are case sensitive), and click ok. The user password will now be updated.
