To invite people to your site team:

at the top left. - Hover over Site.
- Hover over Team Work.

What's next?
The person you invited gets an email, from which they can accept and join the site.

Site and team roles control the actions people can perform, while permissions per page control the pages and global sections they're allowed to work on.

at the top left. - Hover over Site.
- Hover over Team Work.
- Click Permissions Per Page.
- Click the drop-down next to a person's name to edit their permissions.
- Select the checkbox(es) next to the relevant access level:
- All pages: Can edit all site pages.
- All pages and global sections: Can edit all site pages as well as any global sections.
Note: To select this option, you must first select the All pages checkbox. - Specific pages: Select the checkbox next to the pages this person should be able to edit.
Performing an unauthorized action in the Editor
Every user has a specific role in the system with permissions that the site owner can change at any time.
Areas that aren't included in your permissions appear in gray and are not clickable.
To access a feature that is disabled, contact the site owner and ask them to add the relevant permission(s) to your role.
