How to Activate Users

Play Video

There are two ways to activate users: you can either activate a selected set of users or you can activate all users at once.

Activate Selected Users

1. Navigate To Users

Before you can start activating users, you will need to Navigate To Users.

2. Select Users To Activate

Once you have clicked users, you will be taken to the user management section. Here you will be presented with the user management table.

This is where you will be able to activate your users.

The next steps are for activating users individually. You may use this process if there have been new users added to the LMS and you only want to activate a few users rather than all the new users.

To do this, click the box next to the user name you would like to activate.

Select the third tab 'activate all users'.

This will activate all users on the LMS that are not already activated. Each user that is not activated on the LMS will receive an activation email.

After clicking 'activate all users' you will get a confirmation box asking if you are sure you want to activate all users.

There is a box you can check to 'resend activation emails'. If you check this box all users that haven't completed their activation will get a reminder to activate their account.

In this example, the box is ticked.
