Roles: admin, author, reader and demo

What each kind of account can see and do.

For: admins and authorsPage 2 of 71

Overview

  • Admin: every page, every setting.
  • Author: writes and publishes their own posts, manages their author profile and API keys, and moderates comments.
  • Reader: a public account for commenting; no admin access.
  • Demo (read-only): sees every admin page an admin sees, with real data, but cannot save, publish, delete, send or run anything, and cannot download backups. A banner at the top of each page says so.

Admins change roles in Admin → Users. A role change or ban signs the person out straight away.

Diagram

Admins and demo users can open every page. Changes from admins and authors pass the role check; changes from demo users are refused with a read-only notice.
