Security
We know something about the pages, content types, and views we need. We should review them, and decide who should get access to what.
Pages
Here are the pages again:
- Welcome
- About Gamerz
- Why join?
- Who can join?
- Working on projects
- The rules
- Members
- Projects
- Events
- Contact
For managers:
- Members (managers)
- Projects (managers)
- Events (managers)
All of the pages are public, except for the last three. Looks like we’ll need a role for the org’s managers. That would be the president, secretary, and treasurer.

Roles
It’s a good idea to create roles early. Then you can use them when you make content types and such.
Create a new role
The team created a security model. It defined a new role, and listed who had access to what pages, content types, and views.
Org managers (president, secretary, and treasurer) have special access. They can see all member data, unpublish members who haven’t paid their dues, etc. That’s the only special role we need.
To add it, People | Roles | Add role.
Keywords:
Manager control panel
Create a control panel to help managers do their work.

Make the menu show only for users with the communication manager or administrator roles. Create a user with the communication manager role.

Menus
Menus are sets of links
A menu is a set of links to pages. You can have a bunch of menus, each with its own links. You can put menus in different places on the page.
Each link has some text, and a destination URL.
