Manage Site Members

(Before we get into editing settings for site members, understanding the differences between membership roles is vital. Roles determine the level of access a user is capable of. Here are the different roles:)
  • Administrators - have full access and can add and approve users.
  • Publishers - can publish content but they cannot perform administrative tasks, such as changing site settings.
  • Writers - can perform basic tasks, such as writing content, but they cannot publish content.

If you are an Administrator, you can add new members to your site.
  1. Log in to CleanSlate, select the desired site you wish to add a member to and go to Manage > Members.
  2. Select the green 'Add Member' button.
  3. Select a user from the drop-down menu.
  4. Select which type of role you want to apply to the user.
