It's strongly recommended not to use the default `admin` account in production, especially if your LibreTime server is accessible from the internet.

## User account types
|
|
|
|
To add further user accounts to the system, one for each of your station staff that need access to Airtime, click the **New User** button with the plus icon. Enter a user name, password and contact details, and then select the **User Type** from the drop down menu, which can be _Admin_, _Program Manager_, _DJ_, or _Guest_.
|
|
|
|
### Guests
|
|
|
|
- Can view shows and the playout log on the Calendar and Dashboard, respectively
|
|
- Listen to the output stream without leaving the interface
|
|
|
|
### DJs
|
|
|
|
- Everything Guests can do, plus
|
|
- Upload media (music, PSAs, underwriting, shows, etc.) to their own library (DJs can't view other libraries)
|
|
- Edit metadata, delete, and schedule media in their own library to shows they're assigned to
|
|
- Preview uploaded media _without_ affecting the live playout
|
|
- Create Playlists, Smart Blocks, and connect Podcasts and Webstreams to LibreTime
|
|
|
|
### Program managers
|
|
|
|
- Everything DJs can do, plus
|
|
- Manage other users' libraries in addition to their own
|
|
- Create, edit, and delete color-coded shows on the Calendar and assign them to DJs (if needed)
|
|
- Shows can be scheduled to repeat, with the option of linking content between the shows (helpful if a DJ livestreams in each week)
|
|
- View listener statistics
|
|
- Export playout logs for analysis or reporting for music royalties
|
|
|
|
### Administrators
|
|
|
|
- Everything Program Managers can do, plus
|
|
- Manage all user accounts, including the ability to reset passwords
|
|
- Configure Track Types for easy sorting of uploaded content
|
|
- Change system settings
|
|
|
|
## Editing or deleting user accounts
|
|
|
|
To edit a user account, click on that user's row in the table, change the user's details in the box on the
|
|
right side, and then click the **Save** button. To remove a user account, click the small **x** icon to the right
|
|
side of its row in the table. You can't delete your own user account, and usernames can't be changed once created.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Users can update their own password, and their contact, language and time zone details, by clicking their username on the
|
|
right side of the main menu bar, next to the **Logout** link.
