In LearnWorlds, there are the Predefined Roles, and you can also create Custom User Roles (in the Learning Center plan or higher). Hence you can create Community Managers and Community Space Managers who are responsible for your overall Community and Community spaces, respectively.
Using a Community inside your school can help users connect, collaborate, and grow together. You can divide this vibrant community into smaller groups and enhance communication, using Spaces, where Community Space Managers are responsible. Spaces are dynamic clusters within your community's Collections (groups of spaces within your community).
Community Manager and Community Space Manager Role Permissions
Community Space managers are able to View/Edit/Post/Delete posts in their assigned spaces, while Community Managers can:
- View/Edit/Post/Delete posts
- Add/Edit/Reorder/Delete collections
- Add/Edit/Reorder/Delete spaces
in all community spaces.
How to Create a Community Role
There are two different ways to create a new Community/Community Space Manager role:
1. Navigate to Users → Collaborators → Manage roles
2. Navigate to Users → Collaborators → Create a custom role
In both options, you can edit the community manager user role or create new ones based on it. A custom role with the permission to Manage community is considered a community manager.
How to Assign a Community Manager Role
You can assign a Predefined or Custom Community Manager Role in the process of adding a new user to your school (from the All Users page or Users → Collaborators), or by navigating to the Users → All Users page, hovering over the three dots next to the user you wish and click on Edit user.
Choose the Community Manager Administrative Role (the Predefined or the Custom one). Once assigned, you can see a list of your created Community Managers by navigating to Users → Collaborators → Administrative:
