SayPro: Understanding Role Privileges

Task Title:

Understanding Role Privileges in SayPro’s CMS

Objective:

To ensure participants comprehend the responsibilities and system access associated with each user role in SayPro’s Content Management System (CMS), and are able to align these privileges with SayPro’s operational and editorial needs.

---

Task Description:

Participants are required to analyze and understand the specific privileges tied to each CMS role within SayPro. These roles include:

• Contributor
• Editor
• Administrator
• (Optional: Custom roles as assigned by SayPro Posts Office)

Each role carries specific capabilities and limitations that are critical to maintaining the integrity, security, and flow of content creation and publishing. Understanding these permissions helps avoid operational conflicts, duplication of tasks, and potential security breaches.

Participants must:

1. Review Role Definitions
   Examine the access levels and permissions granted to each role in the CMS (e.g., ability to edit, publish, delete, assign users).
2. Match Roles to Organizational Needs
   Ensure that user roles are assigned in a way that supports SayPro’s organizational structure, task delegation, and publication workflow.
3. Identify Risks and Best Practices
   Understand the potential risks of misassigned roles (e.g., a Contributor with publishing rights) and adopt best practices for secure and efficient role distribution.

• Clearly explain the purpose and function of each CMS user role.
