User Types
Default Roles

Kavi Editor has only one default type, Organization Editor, which is managed and assigned through Kavi® Members. The Organization Editor User Type is assigned to the person in charge of keeping the Web site content up to date.

User Types

User Types are used to classify users according to their relationship to the organization. They commonly confer roles that grant access privileges. For more information, see Types, User Types.

Table 15.1. Default User Types

Name Default roles Category Description
Organization Editor Editor editor

The Organization Editor User Type is assigned to the person responsible for maintaining the organization's web site content. Organization Editors can use Kavi Edit Admin tools to create and assign subordinate Editor types, designating which editor type a user needs to be able to edit a particular area of the Web site. For more information, see Access.

By default, this type confers the 'Editor' role, which confers Kavi Edit access to all areas of the Web site. It does NOT confer the 'member' role by default, so users who are assigned this type do not necessarily have access to Member pages or tools.

This type cannot be deleted.
