How to Create/Manage a System Group

You will most likely want to create a number of System Groups to accommodate your organization's desires for enabling and/or restricting access to specific sections of your site.  Before creating any groups, it is a good idea of to have a clear picture of the sections and/or pages each group will be responsible for, and the permissions and roles you wish to grant them. Try not to think of the individual users themselves. Instead, think in terms of the group, even if the group may only contain one user.

Follow the steps below to create/manage a System Group.

1. From the back-end administration area of Mura, select Users from the main navigation, then click Add Group.
   
2. Complete the information on the Group Maintenance Form:
   
   • Group Type
     • Select System Group
   • Group Name
     • Enter a name for the group. For example, "Marketing".
   • Group Email
     • If your organization has an email address that includes all users of the group, you may enter it here. For example, "marketing@yourdomain.com".
   • Content UI Assignments
     • You may optionally restrict which tab(s) the group has access to when editing content. To select more than one tab assignment, <CTRL> + Click on a PC, or <Command> + Click on a Mac.
3. Click the Add or Update button when finished to save your changes.
4. Your new/updated group should be visible in the listing of System Groups.
   
5. Repeat these steps for each System Group you wish to add.
