4.4.1. Creating User Types
A user type is generally defined by the list of the tasks a user is allowed to do in a system. In Campsite, this list of tasks ranges from creating, managing, and editing publications, sections, and articles, to template management and definition of the publishing environment.
To simplify user management, Campsite allows you to create generic user types, which can then be assigned to multiple users, instead of taking care of every single access right for every single user.
Campsite comes "out of the box" with three default user types:
Administrator - user with full authorization, i.e. all rights (normally reserved to webmasters)
Chief Editor - user with higher editorial rights (e.g. has a right to create and delete issues)
Editor - standard back end user with rights limited to basic article management and editing (normally assigned to journalists and editors)
To create your custom user profiles, select 'Users'->'User types' from the main menu:
and then select 'Add new user type'. Proceed to select the rights that you want included for this type of user.
