Administrator accounts
Access for the Content Management System and PushPad (used for sending notifications) is managed in each respective platform. Provide access to administrators based on the tasks they will need to perform.
Content administrators in the Content Management System (CMS)
Most content administrators will be either Editors or Moderators.
Editors can
Create and edit draft pages
Create, edit and delete contacts
Moderators can do that, as well as
Review and publish draft pages
Create and edit political parties
Full administrators can do that, as well as
Edit settings, redirects
Create and modify user permissions
See the standard user management documentation which full administrators can use to manage CMS users.
Adding/onboarding administrators
Decide what level of access they need according to the above outline, then have an administrator with full administration access create a user account for them.
Offboarding/removing administrators
Deactivate the account of an administrator that should not have admin access any more, rather than deleting them. That will allow edit history to make more sense, because it will still refer to the old account, but they will not be able to continue making changes to the content.
PushPad (sending notifications)
https://pushpad.xyz is a platform used for sending notifications to app users that have subscribed in the app.
Administrators that need to send notifications will need to be added as members of the app project in PushPad.
The PushPad subscription owner account can add members, allowing them to send notifications.
To add/remove members,
Each new user will need to create a free account at https://pushpad.xyz
Send the email addresses of each new user, and/or the users to be removed to OpenUp, including a link to this documentation for them to complete the process.
OpenUp will then add/remove the provided accounts to/from the PushPad projects for each of the app environments, as per the needs of each administrator.
