Users can be added from contact using "Manage External user" button or apex code. When a community is created, a corresponding site is also created. Pages that you want to show as public can be added to the pubic access setting of the site. Access inside the community is controlled by community administration settings and community user's profile/permissionset

To create customer users:

  1. Create a new contact.
  2. On the contact detail page, click Manage External User, then Enable Customer User.
  3. Edit the user record for this external user. Select the appropriate profile. The available profiles are limited to the Customer Community User profile and any profiles cloned from it.
