What is WordPress? WordPress is a website that offers users the chance to create their own sites and blogs and give them a lot of different options to edit and customize these sites in order to look as professional and nice as they wanted them in the first place.

In this video, we are going to go through some important tips and steps that will help you to complete some important things within your WordPress page. The first is simply about how to upload any media content, how to delete, rename and add it to each individual page or post. The second part is about how to add a new user, whether that new user is a subscriber, an administrator, or just another content writer or editor on the page itself.

The first thing we are going to do is upload media content and that of course means that you will need to click on the "Media" tool that is found in the toolbar on the left hand side of the page. In the media tool, you will find those which are installed by the website itself - which is usually according to the theme that you have chosen - but you could also add new ones through clicking the "Add New" button which is found up right next to the title of the page and there you get to upload the pictures or other media that you want.

One of the important tips that we would like to give out there is to never upload lots of pictures or even any pictures in general which you are not going to use especially if you are going to have one big of a blog or website. When you upload a specific image to use, you could edit some details related to this image, such as the title, the caption, the size and you will find the details related to it such as when it was installed for example, and eventually you could get the chance to delete the image permanently as well.

If you want to edit the specifications of the image, you will click on the image and then click edit image where you will get to edit the dimensions of the image, you could crop the image and you could also choose the thumbnail settings and change it. The tip we are going to give here is to edit the size of the image before uploading it to WordPress in order to receive better results.

The second part of the video tutorial is on adding a new user. Users can come in handy for many reasons, one of these reasons is that if you created your WordPress site yourself and maybe you want a help with it, you could get someone to help with a specific field in the website. You could simply click on the original user and change some things like the color scheme, enable the shortcut and disable the visual editor and these are related to the profile itself, but there are also some info to edit when it comes to the name and the contact info. The most important thing here is adding a new user.

Creating a WordPress site could be for any purpose or reason and that's why including a new user might be an important thing to have. In order to add a new user to your WordPress site, you will go to Users on the toolbar at the left side of the page and choose 'add a new user', there you will fill the fields with the information that you want and make sure you are choosing the right name because you can't change that and then eventually send the details to that user to his/her email. Once the user login the first time, he/she could then change the password that you have chosen for them. The most important part of creating and adding a new user to the website is classifying what they are going to do on the website and that's what you are going to choose through the 'role' button that is found down in the page of adding a new user; there is the subscriber, the contributor, the author, the editor and the administration.

Deciding on the role of the new user who you are adding is important because that's how you are going to give every single one of them the right role he/she is supposed to be responsible for. Since you are the administrator, you will know what every single one of these added users is doing and what are the changes that he/she has done to the website, which is important to monitor everything happening on your website.

That's how you could add media to your website and add new users to it.
