The Folder-Level Administrator Role
There are two folder-level Administrator roles, applied to folders and their content:
- Author - Creates content within the assigned folder.
- Manager - Creates content (has the same permissions as an Author) and performs administrative tasks within the assigned folder, including modifying folder properties and assigning folder-level roles. A Manager may also have the following additional tasks:
- Folder Reviewer - A Manager who receives automatic notifications about folder items submitted to the standard publication process.
- Moderator - A Manager who reviews (approves or rejects) Comments that are submitted from pages in the assigned folder.
Each role is assigned by folder, including the root folder of a website. The role is assigned in Folder Permissions by another Folder Manager. In Luminate CMS, the roles can be assigned to an entire administrative security group or to an individual who belongs to an appropriate administrative group.
The role assignment can be set to apply only to the folder and its individual content items (not to sub-folders), or recursively to all sub folders and their contents. A person may have different roles in different folders, such as Manager for one folder and Author for other folders.
