Users and Groups

Administrators

The community member who manages the community's administration duties and is often the individual who created the community. A community can have one or more administrator.

Community Administrators can access the Control Panel that allows them to specify and edit community preferences, manage community pages, and set community member permissions.

Community Administrators are also responsible for sending invitations to members to join the community.

Members

Invited guests who have registered and activated an account. Every member has a member profile and a myNetwork workspace.  A member can be assigned additional permissions by an administrator.

Members need to be signed in to view private communities and/or objects with restricted permissions.

Groups

An administrator may create additional groups as required by their community.  These groups may be used to set permissions to areas/documents on your site or you can use groups to re-assign administrative responsibility to other members useing the access section.
