Managing staff users

There are five types of staff users for a Pressbase newsroom: (ranked from higher to lower permission)

Owner > Administrator > Editor > Author > Contributor.

The owner has all the permissions. When you create a newsroom, the default owner login credential is the same as your Pressbase.io login credential.

Staff user permissions

X – Yes
A* – Authors only

How to add a staff user

To add a staff user, go to newsroom admin > Staff. Click the Invite people button to invite a staff user.

There's no hard limit on how many staff users you can add. However, your subscription plan may put some limit on the number of staff users you can add for your account. Please visit the pricing page for details: https://pressbase.io/price

How to delete a staff user

To delete a staff user, go to newsroom admin > Staff. Open a staff user and then click the gear button > Delete User. Deleting a staff user will delete all the data (including posts and pages created by the user) associated with it, so progress with caution.

How to suspend a staff user

You can suspend a staff user so that the user cannot login again but the associated data is kept.

To suspend a staff user, go to newsroom admin > Staff. Open a staff user and then click the gear button > Suspend User.
