# Managing User Accounts

The Quickie wiki engine includes to concept of user accounts to make it possible to manage various permissions.

The most significant permission is the ability to create and edit wiki pages.

## The System Configuration File

There are several fields in the System Configuration file which control anonymous user permissions, and also the default user permissions when an account is forst created.

## Creating New User Accounts

Users create their own accounts through the admin/new_user wiki page. They will usually do this when prompted by actions which require being logged in.

The permissions granted to new users come from the default-user-* fields of the System Configuration file.

## Login

Users can login to get permissions specific to them rather than the more limited anonymous permissions through the admin/login wiki page.

The permissions granted to anonymous users come from the anonymous-user-* fields of the System Configuration file.
