The Guide platform is built with user flexibility in mind. From a permissions level, we've broken access controls into 3 main designations: admins, authors, and subscribers. What's the difference between the three classifications? Find out below:
Administrators can edit, manage, and delete Guides from a site library. They're basically content czars. You can add as many administrators to your account as you need.
Authors, unlike administrators, only have access to specific Guides. Authors can edit, and maintain a particular Guide, but they cannot administer a Guides site in its entirety, and they can not edit or maintain Guides written by others on the system.
When it comes to editing or administering your content on the Guides.co platform, subscribers basically have no access to any editing. In fact, it's probably better if you think of subscribers as readers who can only consumer the content you've put in front of them.
All user information, including administrators and authors, can be exported in a CSV format. This information can then be automatically, or manually imported into an application that supports the format. You can export this file by navigating to the "people" menu item in the main navigation bar, and then click the 'Export Users as CSV' button.
In some cases, if you're charging for your content, you may want to export your purchase history. You can export this file by navigating to the "people" menu item in the main navigation bar, and then click the 'Export Purchase History as CSV' button.
