Click on <\/span>Settings<\/i><\/b> (gearwheel in the upper right corner) and select <\/span>Users<\/i><\/b>. Here you will see who is currently registered as a user. To add more users, enter their email address and click on <\/span>Invite<\/i><\/b>. The invited user will then receive an email with a link to a page where they can create their own user account.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The invitation link is valid for two hours. If the invitation is not accepted in due time, it needs to be renewed, i.e. removed from the invitations that are being listed at the bottom of the page, and sent out again.<\/span><\/p>\n

In case the link in the email does not link to the correct page, the new user may need to log out of possibly already existing user accounts on Mynewsdesk.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If, however, the new user already has a press officer account with access to another newsroom on Mynewsdesk, there will also be an option to log in on that account, in order to now administer several newsrooms via the same already existing user account.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Please note that this requires a press officer account. It will not work to log on a journalist account, which you use to set up alerts on what is being published on Mynewsdesk.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You can invite an unlimited number of users.<\/span><\/p>\n

The contact details that are put in when creating a new user account will never be displayed publicly in the newsroom. Publication of contact information in the newsroom is carried out independently of the press officer\u2019s user account, in the menu under <\/span>Publish<\/span><\/i> > <\/span>Contacts<\/span><\/i> (see <\/span>where do I add or edit a contact on my public newsroom<\/span><\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n
