Creating a new account

Before you can save or edit any layers on a GeoNode instance, you need to create an account.

  1. From any page in the web interface, you will see a Register link. Click that link, and the register form will appear

    Note

    The registrations in GeoNode must be open, in case you don’t see the register link then it’s not possible to register unless the administrator of the site does that for you.
