User Groups Explained

• Registered - Can log in to the front end of the site but cannot access the admin panel.
• Author - Can create new articles but only edit their own.
• Editor - Can create and edit any article, but cannot publish.
• Publisher - Can create, edit, and publish articles.
• Manager - Full content management access including categories and menus.
• Administrator - Full admin access (use with caution).
• Super User - Unrestricted access to everything. Reserved for Moko Consulting.

Best Practices

• Give the minimum access needed - A blog writer only needs Author or Editor, not Administrator.
• Use unique accounts - Don't share login credentials between team members.
• Disable accounts instead of deleting - Block a user's account to revoke access while keeping their content history.
• Review user list periodically - Remove or disable accounts for people who no longer need access.
