Editing a user

Roles-based security

People come, people go and people move to different posts. As they do so, their roles and responsibilities change. The system deploys a robust roles-based security model to elegantly cope with the fluidity of your organisation. Roles can be created that describe the different content/document management responsibilities. For example, the roles "FOI Human Resources maintainer", "FOI Policies maintainer" and "FOI manager" would allow editing rights to two subsections of the FOI area to two people who manage the paper documents, and master rights to the whole FOI area to the Communications Officer or Webmaster.

Users are then given one or more roles. If they change jobs in the organisation, then simply change their roles. If they leave then their login can be deleted (without affecting any live data) and a login for their replacement created.

Editing permissions for roles

Assigning permissions

Permissions to view and edit content are assigned to folders, pages and documents.

Permissions are inherited to make this easy. For example, if a role (such as Guest) has permission to view a folder then it has permission to view everything inside that folder unless specified otherwise.
