Site Permissions Overview

Permissions to pages and site tools can be found in the Site Permissions module. Only System Administrators have access to this Site Tool.

The Site Permissions Site Tool controls group and user access to Pages and Site Tools. Page permissions are designated by the group based on Author, Publisher, and Owner permission levels. Site Tool Permissions are also designated by the group unless a user is a System Administrator. System Administrators have access to all Site Tools outside of Super User-only tools.

Groups

All Groups available for the Organization will appear in the list automatically. The page can be sorted by the Group or the number of group members. Groups are all managed within CivicPlus Organizations.

Users

All users within a group can be viewed on the Users tab. The user list can be sorted and searched as needed. Group users are added and managed in CivicPlus Organizations.
