Who uses this area of the Dashboard?

Managing users is a job that's done only in the dashboard and not the app. Log in to the dashboard here using Google Chrome. This area is for Admins to use to invite colleagues from their school to become users as part of their school registration.   An Admin can invite other teachers in school by adding their name and email address to the list as shown below. If someone forgets their password then this article will help them.

How to add new users

1. Click 'Add Another User' after each row is added and finish by pressing 'Create Users'.
2. Click the red 'X' until you get a green 'tick' if you want to make certain people into Admins too.
3. An email invitation will go out to each person to invite them to join the school's account.

Important: Email invitations

Invitation links sent out by email are only 'live' for about 60 mins for security reasons.  After this time has elapsed, the link will show as 'expired'.  To get a fresh link emailed immediately, go to the DashBoard or app logins and tap 'Forgotten Password' entering the email with which you are registered. Check your junk/clutter folder just in case the email accidentally ends up there.

What's a typical housekeeping task for an Admin?
In the school Dashboard an Admin does basic housekeeping e.g. tick or untick

• disabling or deleting user accounts where people leave school
  • remember, Blippit Boards preserves board evidence after someone has left and relabels it to 'Archive'.
• removing/updating user Admin privileges

We recommend all teachers at least should have Admin access.
