Varbase comes with preconfigured default roles tailored for sites with hierarchical content management permissions.
The default roles that come preinstalled with Varbase are:
Editor Has permissions to edit all content on the website but can't publish any content.
Content admin Can edit all content and publish it but can't edit anything else not related to the content roles.
SEO admin Can edit items that related to SEO stuff, Meta tags and Google Analytics.
Site admin Can edit, delete, publish all content int the site.
Super admin Can edit everything in content and configurations for the site.
You'll also notice that there are 2 more roles when managing roles and permissions. The Anonymous user role and the Authenticated user role. These roles are provided by default from Drupal and cannot be edited/deleted. These roles help identify the users such as:
Anonymous user: Any visitor/user who can access the website without providing a username or password.
Authenticated user: Any user who can access the website by providing a username or password.
Varbase default roles were created to with the following high-level roles designation in mind:
