# How to Add Subusers to Your Server on XGamingServer (/docs/panel-guides/subusers)







import { Step, Steps } from 'fumadocs-ui/components/steps';

Subusers let you give other people access to your server's panel with specific permissions — useful for server staff, moderators, builders, or friends.

Subusers Page [#subusers-page]

Click **Users** in the sidebar to manage subusers. Each subuser shows their name, email, 2FA status, and creation date.

Common Permission Presets [#common-permission-presets]

| ----------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
| **Trusted admin** | All permissions                               |
| **Moderator**     | Control (console, restart) + File (read only) |

> **Warning:** Be careful granting **User** permissions — a subuser with this can invite or remove other subusers and modify their permissions.

Edit Permissions [#edit-permissions]

Click **Modify permissions** next to any subuser to change their access.

Remove a Subuser [#remove-a-subuser]

Click the red **delete** button next to the subuser. They immediately lose access.
