Ever wished for a variation of an off-the-shelf CMS role? Perhaps your Customer Service team need to set up web users in the CMS, but they don't require access to product maintenance and home page editing...

You need a custom role with tailored permissions! Luckily, we can take care of that for you. (thumbs up)

The latest CMS upgrade has brought with it the ability to create new roles, with individual permissions that can be set just as you require them. 

    • Web User Management only? Done. 
    • Custom Pages and Article Management only? Easy. 

The table below lists the various permissions and what each one entails. 


Feel free to contact us if you need a custom CMS role created.
