Assigning group roles
Video: Administering members and roles
It is possible to have more than one group administrator, and it is also possible to allow certain members to edit content within the group. Both of these can be accomplished by adding roles to the members you specify.
The following steps show you how to add privileges to a regular member’s account.
Go to the Group tab on your group homepage
Click "People"
Select users to modify
Just as before, find the user in your list of members (the People screen). In this example, I have searched for a specific username, so only one user is listed. Check the box next to their name.
Modify User Roles
In the Operations dropdown, choose “Modify OG user roles.” Click Execute.
In case you're curious, the OG stands for Organic Groups, the Drupal module we use to divide this site into groups.
Set roles to add and remove
You will be taken to a screen where you can add and remove user roles. Under “Add roles,” select “Contributor member."
If you want them to also be able to manage group members, add the "Administrator member" rold.
See the Reference section on “Group Roles” to learn what each role can do).
Leave the “Remove roles” section alone.
Click Next.
Click Confirm
The system will ask you if you are sure and again list all the accounts that will be affected, and you should click "Confirm."
You will see a success message at the top of the screen, and the new role will appear next to the user in the “Roles” column.
