Welcome to CMS Made Simple

From CMSMS

Users and Groups

As you might expect Users and Groups admin controls who has access to what in CMSMS - at least as far as back end users are concerned. If you have installed the Front End Users module the subject of security gets a little more involved and is discussed seperately in the documentation for that module.

There are four areas that you can edit here.

Users

Users are individual people who can log on to CMSMS via the Admin login page.

Groups

Users having a similar interest in the site are collected into Groups by way of Group Assignments and are granted (or denied) permission to undertake specific administration tasks by way of Group Permissions.

Group Assignments

Users are placed into groups via Group Assignments and obtain personal permissions for site administration from the permissions granted to groups.

Group Permissions

Groups are assigned administrative Permissions for the CMSMS Core and also from any loaded Modules.
