# How to register a user in the PHP-Nuke admin area

In PHP-Nuke, you can create a user from within the back office. This tutorial explains how to register a new user from within the administration interface of your PHP-Nuke website.

## Registering a new user in PHP-Nuke

1. Log into your [PHP-Nuke admin interface](/support/edu/php-nuke/login-administrator-system/).  
2. [![click the users icon](https://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/edu_phpnuke_create-user_click-users.png)](/support/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/edu_phpnuke_create-user_click-users.png) From the main admin page, click on the **Users** icon from the *Modules Administration *list.  
3. [![enter-new-user-data](https://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/edu_phpnuke_create-user_user-data.png)](/support/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/edu_phpnuke_create-user_user-data.png) This opens up the user information area underneath the menus. From here you will see a set of fields for your user’s information. Fill in any desired information. There are only three required fields (**name**, **email**, and **password**).  
4. Once you have the information entered, click on the **Add User **button at the bottom of the page. This will save the new user account.
