Site Access

Superuser Groups always are “All Sites” access and no management of Site access is done for them either at Group or at User level.

For non-super user groups, the default is that Site access is managed at user level, but may be switched to managing access at group level. Clicking on the button “Manage site access at group level” displays a confirmation box
Clicking OK will switch Site access to being managed for all users in the group to group level. For group level access, each user in the group (and new users added to the group) will have access to the sites defined at group level.
The management of Site Access may be switched back to User level by clicking “manage site access at user level” Again a confirmation dialog will be displayed before the action takes place, with a chance to cancel.

Managing Sites

Clicking on the “Manage Site Access” button brings up the site access window. Initially it is set to All Sites for a group and can be switched over to Restricted Site List.
Switching the radio button over to Restricted Site List will bring the Site Management Tree up where sites can be allocated to the group (all users in the group) by clicking on the check box against the Site/Container. When managing access on this window all changes are applied to all users in the group as ticks are clicked on and off – no use of the save button on the Groups screen is required here.
As ticks are applied and removed a small busy image is displayed at the top of the tree for each action as the operation is applied to all users in the group.

Adding New Users to a Group with Site Management at Group Level

If a user is created or moved to a group with Site Management at Group Level they use the settings from this group - even if the user previously had different individual site settings. This applies to newly created users in the group.
