Account Administration

From unroole CMS wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

Every account in unroole can be setup with multiple Admin Profiles. This allows for an account to be administered to by more than one person. Each account on the system is has created with some default Roles and Permissions. These allow for various admins to be given different access levels to the same content on an account.


Access Levels

By default new accounts are populated with the following system roles:

  • Owner - Full access to an account content
  • Read - Only read access to the account content

These roles can be given to other admins to quickly setup new access levels or to designate an admin who's credentials on an accoutn closely match those of the owner.

Account Ownership

Highlight owner of account

For the purposes of billing the admin who originally creates the account is designated as the owner. This can be seen on the account dashboard. The owner of an account normally has full access to an account through its 'owner' roles.

Ownership cannot currently be transfered through the admin panel. Account ownership needs to be done through the admin console or by special request.

Advanced Mode

Normally a user will only be able to see a limited amount of the panels they have access to. Due to the extremely large amount of panels they would normally have access to most profiles will start in 'basic mode'. This mode simply limits them to a predefined number of panels necessary for minimal management of an account. At any time the user of an account is able to switch to 'advanced mode' which will give them full access to all panels for that account.

Caveats

  • 'basic mode' does not limit a users permissions. Instead it simply limits what a user can see at any time.
  • Users who have created additional items in advanced mode and switch back to 'basic mode' will still see those items/panels in basic mode.
