Site Users

Manage customer accounts that access your storefront, including user profiles, orders, projects, albums, roles, and import/export.

Site Users are the customer accounts that register on or are created for your storefront. From this page you can view all customers, search by name or email, toggle flags like Approver and Tax Exempt directly in the grid, and drill into any user to manage their orders, projects, carts, albums, roles, profile, and password.

Site Users are distinct from Admin Users, which are accounts that have access to the Unified Admin dashboard itself. A single person may have both a site user account and an admin user account.

View Site Users

  1. From your Unified Admin, go to Users > Site Users.
  2. The list displays all customer accounts for the currently selected storefront, sorted by most recent login by default.
  3. Use the search bar at the top right to filter users by name, email, or username.
  4. Toggle the Approver, Mktg Option, Sales Rep, and Tax Exemp checkboxes directly in the grid. Changes save immediately.
  5. The grid uses server-side pagination with continuous scrolling for large user lists.
