Adding users to your site

There are several methods in which you can create an account for a resident:

1. Add them manually, or
2. Allow them to register themselves, or
3. Sent users an invitation if you have their email address (coming soon).

We have several methods for allowing residents to register:

1. Automatic access upon registration (anyone can register and gain immediate access)
2. Access via an "access code" (only residents that have the "secret code" can register)
3. Access after admin review (registrations are placed in a "pending" status until an admin reviews and approves the request)
4. Access after email confirmation (residents receive an email to confirm there registration for immediate access)
