How do I...

# Assign a user to a different role

| About user accounts and roles

1. On the Site administration page, under Users and roles, click Manage users .
2. Click the user account to which you would like to assign a new role.
3. Select the check boxes next to the user roles that you want to enable for the user account.
4. Click Submit.

Notes

- If you're using the default user roles, you need only select one role for the user account. Each role has all of the access rights of those lower on the list plus additional rights. For example, an author has contributor rights in addition to the right to create, edit, and delete HTML pages.
- If you don't see the Manage users option, you are probably in a subweb that uses the user account and roles settings of a higher-level Web site of the server or virtual server. To work with accounts and roles, either navigate to the top-level Web site, or set up unique permissions for this subweb. See your network administrator or ISP for more information.
