(1) Creating and deleting users
Describes how to create and delete Ops I and WordPress users.
When an Ops I user is created, the same user is created in WordPress. Site network administrators are assigned site administrators from the [Site Management] window.
The mapping between Ops I users and WordPress user information is as follows. If an Ops I user’s entry in the table below is changed, the corresponding entry for the WordPress user will also be updated.
If you want to fix the display language for the WordPress users, click [Edit Profile] in the upper right corner of each window, and specify the language from [Language] in the [Profile] window.
(Table) Mapping of Ops I users to WordPress user information
| Ops I | WordPress |
|---|---|
| username | username, name, nickname |
| firstName | first_name |
| lastName | last_name |
When an Ops I user is deleted, the associated WordPress user is also deleted. The user’s property (e.g., posts) in WordPress is passed on to the dxuser user, which exists only in WordPress.
The following describes the details on the WordPress dxuser user.
- A user exists only inside WordPress and does not exist as an Ops I user (login not allowed)
- A user named dxuser cannot be added in Ops I
- A user to take over the property of the deleted user
- Fixed pages and posts owned by a dxuser can be manually changed to another user at a later time (users who can make changes, i.e., users assigned to a Primitive role “portal_network_admin” or “portal_site_admin”)
(2) Windows and items displayed for each role
The site administration window displays the items required for operation for each role assigned to the user. The following shows the correspondence between the displayed items and roles.
There are two main site management windows: the [Site Network Management] window and the [Site Management] window. The same header is displayed on both windows.
The [Site Network Management] window is visible only to users assigned the Primitive role “portal_network_admin”.
For more information on roles, see “Display and operation permissions based on roles”.

(3) Main sites/template sites
Two types of sites are provided in the initial state of site management: Main site and template site. Use the two sites for different purposes. The details are as follows.
The main site is the site with the [Lightning] theme applied in its initial state. The main site can be edited and published.
The template site is the site to which the [Lightning] theme is applied, with the basic pages used by customer and requestor users embedded by default. You can copy a template site and customize it for each user of the site. This shortens the process of site creation.
Users with the following roles cannot access the template site, even if they also have other site management roles.
- Primitive role "portal_subscriber"
- Pre-Installed role corresponding to Primitive role "portal_subscriber"
For details on site management roles, see “Display and operation permissions based on roles”.
