## Administration

1. Is a rights management system included in the groupware?
2. Can I define several administrators?
3. I created a user but this user can't see any modules, why?
4. What do 'Display Level' and 'Module Level' mean?

1. | Is a rights management system included in the groupware?
| Yes, you can create rights which are based on users or on usergroups. The rights will be on a per module basis, this means you can manage rights for each module differently. Not all modules support this yet, though.
2. | Can I define several administrators?
| Yes, thats easy. An administrator is by definition nothing more than a user which can access the administration module with its programs like groupmanagement or rightsmanagement. So each user can be an admin if he has the specific rights.
3. | I created a user but this user can't see any modules, why?
| Keep in mind that you must give the user the rights to see the modules. You can do this in two ways. You can give the user the rights for each module, or you can just put the user into a group which allready has the propriate rights. There is a standard group called "default" which should have basic rights for each module.
4. | What do 'Display Level' and 'Module Level' mean?
| 'Display Level' determines the order of the modules in the main navigation menu. 'Module Level' is a bit harder to explain: it determines how strong a right is on a module. Anyway, since it is only used in one module (forum) to check if you are an admin... you may as well ignore this setting for the time being.
