Adjust Permissions

How do I determine who site participants can send a message to?

This feature gives the option to regulate each role's message composing permissions.

  1. Select Messages from the Tool Menu in the site.

    Go to Messages.
  2. Click Permissions located below the site title.

    Click Permissions.
  3. Check the corresponding boxes for desired permissions.

    Permissions are assigned on a role-by-role basis. For instance, to prevent a student from sending a message to "All Participants", un-check the Student permission box located next to, "Allow the 'All Participants' options".

    Note: These options will be visible when clicking the "To" text box in Compose a Message.

    This option allows the user to change permissions for different groups. This way, each group has unique Messages tool options.

    Use drop-down menu for separate permissions based on groups. (Optional)
