Roles and Permissions for Application Templates

When an application template is imported, roles are automatically created in the portal's user management system for portal users who perform specific tasks and are thus granted specific permissions for pages or data groups within the application.

These roles are each mentioned by name in the descriptions of the various application templates. The specific function of each role is also described there.

You can easily add the desired portal users as members of a specific role. You can find instructions on how to do this here: User Groups and Users.

Depending on the complexity of an application template, not all roles are necessarily required. Here's a brief overview of all the possible roles:

	User The user "User" has the fewest privileges. He is exclusively a portal user. He does not have permissions for the Intrexx Portal Manager. For example, in the "News" application template, he can only view the news but cannot create it himself. In the "Shop" application template, he can purchase items but cannot manage them.
	Editor The "Editor" user has all the rights that the "User" user has. In addition, he can perform editorial tasks. He does not have permissions for the Intrexx Portal Manager. For example, the "Editor" user can archive news items in the "News" application template.
	Manager The "Manager" user has all the permissions that the "User" and "Editor" users have. In addition, he can perform administrative tasks in the portal. He does not have permissions for the Intrexx Portal Manager. For example, the "Manager" user can create new categories in the "News" application template. In the "Shop" application template, he can manage items.
	Administrator The "Administrator" user has all the rights that the "User," "Editor," and "Manager" users have. In addition, he has permissions for the Intrexx Portal Manager. There, he can, among other things, add languages, delete sample data, and customize or extend application templates.
