Roles, answered
What is a role?
A named set of permissions, like Manager or Editor. You give a role to a user instead of picking permissions one by one.
Where do the permissions come from?
From your Permissions screen. Add a permission there, then use it in any role.
Who can add, edit or delete roles?
Owners and admins with access to User Management.
What happens if I delete a role?
The role disappears from the list, and people who had it lose its access. Move them to another role first.
