Add Additional Admin Users

Tutorial

To add additional admin members to your site (with access to the site's Control Panel) and to prevent getting locked out of your own site, you can create extra admin accounts and should also create a second admin account for yourself. You would set your access level to the highest level and use it as a backup account in case you ever locked yourself out. You could then use the other account to unlock yourself.
