# Plugin: Create Joomla user

## Description <a href="#description" id="description"></a>

This plugin automatically creates a Joomla account for the users subscribing to AcyMailing using the module.

You can download it on our [plugins section](https://www.acyba.com/acymailing/plugins.html#creuser) then install and publish it like a standard Joomla plugin.

This plugin will not create Joomla accounts when importing AcyMailing users using the "Import" menu, only manually created users will be taken into account.

* **Group ID**: You can specify a default user group. If you don't do it, Acy will use the default one
* **Subscribed lists**: You can restrict the Joomla account auto-creation for the users subscribing to one or more specific lists
* **Opt-in custom field**: You can add a custom field to your form (like a radio-buttons field) to let the users choose whether or not a Joomla account should be created
* **Active on Back-end**: By default, this plugin is disabled on the back-end so when you manually create a subscriber, it won't create a Joomla user
