User
 
Users have different rights, as the case may be, according to which user group(s) they are assigned to and which permissions these groups are granted. In principal, a user can only see those services and contents for which he/she has been given permissions.

A user can:

  • Register

  • Change his/her settings (user data such as address, telephone number, photo...)

  • Order information (“notifications”) concerning changes to texts

  • Retrieve contents (the authorization system controls who sees what)

  • Enter contents (if the services “images” and “downloads” are activated, they can also upload pictures and externally-created data files)

  • Link/Associate contents with each other (“link”)

  • Change contents (Permission settings control who is permitted to edit)

  • Hide contents (Permission settings control who can delete what)

  • Set permissions for new or altered contents


  • infoPermissions System:
    The user sees which groups the pAdmin has added and can select which groups he/she would like to grant read/write permissions to. This person cannot, however, add his/her own groups.

  • Come into contact with other users (ping, chat…), if these services are set to available.
