Create a new role in OJS

Postby Citein » Fri Oct 19, 2012 6:05 am

Hello!!

We use OJS in our institution and we need to create a new Role in OJS which can have access like a "Super User". What I mean is a user that can have access like Administrator, Journal Manager and Editor at the same time.

It is possible to create this kind of role?

Thank you very much in advance for your support.

Hi Lorena,

Users can have multiple roles, so it's already possible for a user to have Site Admin, Journal Manager, and Editor roles. The latter two can be assigned as usual through User Management; you'll need to manually INSERT additional Site Administration roles in your database, though. (I believe instructions for that are available in our FAQ.)
