Every person who needs access to Super Ticker needs a user account in the system. Each user account is assigned user credentials including a User Name and Password as well as a role to control what that actions that user can perform in the system.
As part of the installation, Super Ticker comes pre-installed with a System Administrator user by default. This System Administrator user account can be used to access Super Ticker and create new and manage existing users as well as assign user permissions.
Add Users
You can create new user accounts and assign those users specific access in Super Ticker using the User > Add User option.
- Enter the user’s First Name, Last Name, and Email in the fields.
- Configure the user’s access in the system by selecting a Security Level option from the list.
In Super Ticker, see the topic Super Ticker Super Ticker Security Levels for details. - Specify a Content Group for the user to limit user access to content, or select All to allow the user to see all content in the system.

Note: Your system is only as secure as the passwords for your user accounts. It is highly recommended that you use strong passwords for all Super Ticker user accounts. The strongest passwords include a long combination of letters, numbers, uppercase, lowercase, symbols, and other special characters.
Manage Users
Super Ticker administrators can manage system user accounts as well as manage system access per account using the User > Users option.
Note: The System Administrator user account, created as part of the initial installation, cannot be modified or removed. However, the password can be changed.
