Website users and access levels
Website users are accounts that can sign in to your site’s backend (/admin). They are not the same as your personal Fluger dashboard login unless you deliberately use the same email for both.
Where users are managed
- Fluger dashboard — site owner can open Websites → gear → Users to add/remove users and assign roles for that website.
- Site backend — users with the Administrator role (and the Users module) may see Users and Roles to manage accounts and permissions without leaving
/admin.
Exact entry points depend on your host and version.
Roles and permissions
A role is a named set of permissions. Typical examples:
| Concept | What it usually means |
|---|---|
| Backend access | Can open /admin at all |
| Pages | View list, create, edit, delete pages |
| Branding | Template, logo, favicon, custom CSS (often split into sub-permissions) |
| Images | Use the media library (folders, upload, rename, delete) |
| Layouts | Edit template layout defaults (widgets per layout file) |
| Widget layouts | Edit Scriban overrides for how each widget type renders |
| Settings | View or edit site settings definitions |
| Administrator | Full control including user and role management |
Editor-style roles often include most content modules but not user administration. Viewer roles might only see the pages list.
Assigning roles
- Open user management (dashboard or
/admin). - Create or edit a user.
- Pick a role (or, for administrators, toggle individual permissions if your UI supports it).
- Save. The user must use Website backend login at
https://yoursite/admin.
Security tips
- Give Administrator only to people who need full control.
- Use separate passwords for Fluger dashboard vs website backend when possible.
- Remove or deactivate users who no longer work on the site.
