We have a variety of author "privileges" on the site. Review existing author privileges.
A general way of understanding this is that any user on the site is a Writer, Editor, Publisher, or Agency Manager (maximum 3 per agency).
There are no Administrators on any site in the DX Platform.
Roles: Summary
We have more in-depth details on existing author privileges.
Our general approach to the site is that a Writer creates content for review.
An Editor reviews and edits content.
A Publisher writes, reviews, edits, and publishes content.
An Agency Manager may do all editing, publishing, site settings and taxonomy structure.
