Roles are a vital part of the backend of your site. Roles restrict who can see, edit, update, and change data. The role you assign to someone can also restrict access to certain areas of the site. To assign a role, click on the Administration tab > Users > Active Users. Now click on the green pencil next to the desired user. You will find a tab titled Roles and click on this. Now click Add Role. You will have a list of roles to choose from. Depending on your individual site, you may possibly have many roles. You can assign InSite and website roles here. Below you will find the base InSite roles. If you have other roles and not sure what they are, please contact support for clarification at support@communitysys.com.
