Project WebSynergy Milestone 4 Administration Guide

Regular Roles

Guest, User, Power User, Owner, and Administrator are the different Regular Roles. All the user with login access to WebSynergy are assigned with the 'User' role. It defines the difference between a Guest and a person who has a user ID in the portal. By default, all users are also assigned the Power User role. This role by default gives users their own personal pages (both public and private) where they can place portlets.

To make yourself an Administrator, click the Select link. A window listing all the roles in the system pops us. Click the Administrator link from the pop-up window. You are now an administrator of the portal. Log out of the portal and then log back in with your own user ID. You can now create a private page for the administration portlets and set them up in your own space.
