About the “Add Multiple Users” plugin
The “Add Multiple Users” plugin is a very useful plugin for Wordpress admins as it allows the creation of multiple user accounts on a blog.There are lots of ways to use the plugin but this tutorial covers how to create new user accounts through the import of .csv files.

Fill in the data
Fill in the spreadsheet and save as a .csv file
Notes:
1. Username must not include surnames and we suggest you use year of exit to group users by year;2. Passwords should be age appropriate and should be individual;3. Display name is how you want the author’s name displayed on the blog;4. Emails must be unique but can be dummies. We suggest you use a combination of username and the
school’s blog domain, e.g. [email protected]. Use “contributor” as the role assuming you want all blog posts to be moderated.
