Configure an administrator for Blogs
By default, a wsadmin account is set to administer Blogs. Use this procedure to designate a Blogs administrator specified.
IBM Connections administrators must be dedicated users. Their only purpose should be application administration.
Only a Blogs administrator can configure a Blogs Homepage blog, which is required for Blogs. See Manage the Homepage blog.
We can also create administrators to managing application content. See the topic Administering application content.
Create administrators in the WAS console.
To configure administrative access to an application:
- From the WAS console, select Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications.
- Find and click the link to the application to configure. For example, click Blogs.

- To map a user to the administrative role, select the check box for the admin role and then click Map Users.
- In the Search String box, type the name of the person whom you would like to set as an administrator, and then click Search. If the user exists in the LDAP directory, it is found and displayed in the Available list.
- Select the name from the Available box, and then move it into the Selected column.
- Repeat Steps 4 and 5 to add more users to the administrative role.
- Click OK.
- From the Enterprise Applications > Blogs > Security role to user/group mapping page, click OK, and then click Save to save the changes.
