Using Roles
The roles are displayed in the Roles Administration section when clicking on the Permissions icon. Choosing the Tree view in the Style pulldown gives an overview of the roles levels. At the top of the tree is the role "Everybody", which represents the all users of all groups on your site.

TAGGON comes pre-configured with a set of roles, as shown below:

Everybody
|---Anonymous
|---Administrators
|---Users

• Everybody: The role containing all users of all groups on your site. This role has no access privileges.

• Anonymous: The role containing users that represents all unregistered users on your site. This role is pre-configured with access privileges to the front page and the login.

• Administrators: The users with administration privileges in Taggon.

• Users: The role containing the registered users of the site. This role is not pre-configured with access privileges. Privileges must be assigned.

The pre-configured roles cannot be edited or deleted.

From the Tree view in Style, you can most easily access the roles.

The following functions are available for roles:

X icon: Delete this role.  To delete a Role, remove all the users first. Then the Delete icon becomes available.
