Adding or Removing a User from a Group

To add or remove a user from a group,

Go to the 'Administration Console' and click on 'Manage Users' in the left panel.
All members of the Confluence-Users group are listed in alphabetical order (first name). To find a user, you can either browse through the pages; or do a search on the user's mail id or the group to which they belong.
Click on the user link. This will display the user's current details and links to edit them.
Click 'Edit Groups'. This will display two lists of groups:
- 'Not a member of groups': All groups to which the user doesn't belong. To add the user to a group, select a group and click 'Join'. Hold Ctrl and click to select more than one group.
- 'Member of groups': All groups to which the user belongs. Select a group and click 'Leave' to remove the user from the group.

You cannot use the Edit Groups option to add or remove users from external groups, as Confluence access to LDAP and JIRA groups is read only.
