The Site Manager role is reserved for 1-2 user accounts on Berkeley Web Builder sites. Site Manager(s) are identified during the site spinup process and the Site Manager role is assigned to the appropriate user account(s) by the Web Platform Services team only. Site Managers are responsible for managing the user accounts and roles on their Berkeley Web Builder sites in addition to other responsibilities.
Primary responsibilities
- Manage users and roles on website
- Be familiar with all aspects of site building
- Serve as primary point of contact for website
- Make/approve requests for optional features
Site Managers are considered the main contact for individual Berkeley Web Builder sites. Site Managers should attend Site Builder training sessions along with any Site Builders who may be working on their sites. Site Builders, Editors, Contributors, and Members should work with their respective Site Managers to get access to sites and request additional features.
Site Manager information
In addition to being listed in the table of user accounts on Berkeley Web Builder user dashboards, the Site Manager name and email address is included at the top of several top-level pages. See Figure 1, below.
Add and modify user roles
Site Managers are the only individuals on Berkeley Web Builder sites who may add and modify roles on other user accounts.
To add new user accounts:
- have the person log in to your site first with their CalNet ID and passphrase via /cas (see the Login and access page); then
- navigate to your user accounts page (dashboard/admin/users) to add a role to their account (see below).
To add, change, and remove roles from user accounts:
- locate the user account in the table on the user accounts page (see Figure 2, below);
- select the checkbox for the user account (see Figure 2, below);
- activate the "Actions" dropdown and select "change the role of the selected users" (see Figure 3, below);
- select the "apply to selected items" button (see Figure 3, below);
- choose the appropriate role for the user account and select the "Apply" button to complete the process (see Figure 4, below).
