Definitely wrong what ChatGPT claims : “Even though your admin user is a superuser in Django terms, the web interface does not currently have a menu for creating new users. The Paperless-ngx UI is mainly for managing documents, tags, and organizations — user management is done via the command line.”
ChatGPT even states “
Ah, that makes sense 👍 — the older 32-bit LinuxServer.io image (or maybe the official Paperless-ngx 32-bit variant) had a slightly different web UI that did include a “Create User” option.
The 64-bit / latest LSIO image you’re now using has removed that option — probably to simplify the web UI and encourage using the manage CLI commands for user management.
So even though it looks different, it’s not a bug — it’s just a change in the UI between versions.”
Definitely not true.
I do have a menu for this in my Paperless-ngx installation, no problem creating a new user.
I cannot say for sure (though tried it). I believe that Postgre as a database is not a condition for a flawlessly running Paperless-ngx installation. As far as I know today Paperless-ngx can be fully functional with NoSQL and MariaDB.
