    User Roles/Security

    The first step in controlling your Website is managing who can access its content.  As an administrator, you have the ability to create or modify as many user accounts as you need.  Each user account may be assigned to a different User Role (see below), which gives them the ability to perform various tasks.  A user may be moved to a different role at any time.

    Assigning User Permissions

    There are several levels of access within SiteOrganic.  Roles govern the overall access and permission level of the user.  Please see below for a reference on these roles.  If a role ofCoordinator (or below) is assigned, the administrator must also grant access permissions to specific groups.  

    To assign these permissions:
    1. As an administrator, log into SiteOrganic
    2. On the Site Administration tab, select the "Manage Users" option
    3. Search for the user you would like to edit
    4. Choose the user from the search results
    5. Under the "Permission to edit which groups?" select the check boxes next to each group in which the user should have access
    6. Click the "Save Changes" button at the bottom of the window
     

    A Summary Of User Roles Is Below:

    Role
    		 Description
    Public The lowest possible role setting.  Most commonly used for public visitors to the site.  With this role, a user may not log in to the Admin Console, nor may they manage/change any aspect of the content on the Website.
    Member This is a very low User Role, similar to Public in most ways.  However, a Member may log in to the Admin Console, provided that the user has at least one User Attribute.  For instance, if you have a user who is only allowed to upload audio/video programs to the Website, you would set them as a Member with the Audio/Video attribute.  This prevents the user from having access to any page content, calendar dates, etc.
    Worker At this level, a user may edit most aspects of general content within a group/subdivision/ministry.  The Worker may only work on the group(s) to which they have been assigned.  Available tasks include creating/editing pages, adding calendar events, and editing directories.
    Senior Worker Senior Workers may edit virtually any aspect of a group, including pages, forms, event registrations, calendar events, etc.  The Senior Worker may only work on the group(s) to which they have been assigned.
    Coordinator Coordinators are identical to Senior Workers, except that they may also edit overall properties of a group, such as its name, whether or not it is hidden, and its header skin effects (if applicable).  Coordinators may only work on the group(s) to which they have been assigned.
    Staff Users with this level of access are allowed to work on any group across the entire Website.  Staff may also edit pages for the Master Group and access feedback forms.   Staff users, however, may not edit any of the overall administrative features of the Website.  Staff are also restricted from editing user accounts.
    Administrator Administrators have full control over every aspect of the Website.  Administrators are the only people who may adjust the security roles of other users.
