It is possible to create a new Administrator account from the Customers interface. This is functionally identical to creating a Customer or Reseller Account, outside of selecting Administrator as the Account Type.
- Username – The username is used to login to a Administrator account. Typically this will be the same as the email account.
- Password – Enter the initial password for the Administrator account login. The password must be a length of at least 5 characters minimum.
- Confirm Password – Re-enter the exact same password.
- Accessibility Features – Adds an additional link to the main menu labelled “Skip to main content” for quick access with Screen Readers.
- Status – Determine if the account is created in an Enabled or Disabled state. If disabled, accounts will be unable to login.
- API Access – Determines access to the MediaCP API relevant to the Account Type (Administrator, Customer or Reseller). Disabling API Access will prevent any API calls from this Customer account.
- Send Welcome Email – Defaults to Yes, results in the Welcome Email Template being sent after account creation if SMTP email is setup.
- Name – The Customers full name used to identify the account and in email/other communications.
- Contact Number – The contact phone number is used for administrative information only.
- Email – The email account is used for primary communications such as resetting the account password and account notifications.
- Account Type – The user level is either Customer, or Administrator.
