Security Roles

Security roles are useful in cases where you want to allow users to edit content on your website, however you want to limit the pages that they can edit. To accomplish this in general terms,

 

To Create a Security Role

  1. Login as administrator.
  2. From the Admin menu, choose Security Roles.
  3. Click on the "Add New Role" link at the bottom of the screen.
  4. Fill in the Role Name and description.
  5. Click the "Update" link.

  1. Have the user register on the site - or create a new account for them yourself.
  2. Create a security role (See below)
  3. Assign the user to the role.
  4. Assign the role to the page(s) they should edit.
  5. Then ask the user to login. They will see the control panel at the top of their pages, but not on other pages. They will be able to change content on only their assigned pages.
