JOOMLA-3(ASSINGING PRIVILAGES)

Assigning Privileges
As an example, let's give the user Guppy authoring privileges.
1. Login as Administrator to the Admin panel. Go to Site -> User Management and click on the User.









2. Set privileges to Author and Save











The privilege levels are ...
Registered: No ability to create content, but may submit links and access privelegded content.
Author: Can create content.
Publisher: Can publish content.
Manager: Has access to administrator panel.
Administrator: Can also change web site layout and templates. Can manage users.
Super Administor: The global all powerful login that was created during setup.
Resetting Passwords
Note that you can reset an user password to your choosing. However, you can never "look up" an user password (since it is encrypted with an one-way algorithm). If an user forgets his or her password, they can get an automatic password reset by clicking Lost Password on the front page of the site.
