Admin user is by default created with the ‘WordPress’ installation. You can have as many users and each of them may have their own profile. The profiles can be attached to the posts, pages and comments on the website. These profiles are publicly available, to allow you to share information. You can edit the information given in the profile anytime and changes are immediately being reflected where your profile is being displayed. From the admin panel, profile can be created and edited by clicking on the “your profile” option. Profile is categorized as: ‘Personal options’, ‘Name’, ‘contact info’ and ‘About yourself’. In your profile you can enter your name, email-address, website name, AIM, yahoo or jabber id, name to be displayed publicly on posts and pages for which it provides you the list box from which you can choose. You can’t change the user name, if you have created the admin user and want to get rid of that, create another user with admin rights, login with that new user and delete the admin user.
