As the administrator, you must understand the various content author roles. For example, a
content author might want to create a landing page from a page template. For this type of site
update, the content author creates a project and then creates a page from a page template in site
manager. To accomplish these goals, the content author needs to exist in the system and belong to a
content author group. The content author would need access to projects to create or enter a project
and access to other resources types like pages in order to create a draft page.
A content reviewer role also exists in the content authoring story. You need to add the content
reviewer to the system to a content reviewer group. The content reviewer group needs sufficient
access to view draft content and to move drafts to the next workflow stage.
The flow chart highlights the content authors and reviewers goals and the tasks that
administrators must complete for these roles to accomplish their goals.
This roadmap focuses on creating users and groups, assigning resource permissions, and assigning
library permissions.
