The New Editor Interface: understanding the default simple editing user role

The New Editor Interface is designed to accommodate the needs of a wide range of user types, from the professional website designer to SMBs with various levels of digital proficiency.

It is possible for partners to define their own, custom end user limitations and thereby tailor-make user roles that fit specific needs in the market.

By default, the Editor is set up with two pre-defined user roles: a full-access (admin) version with all features and settings available; and a simple editing version where the user can perform a limited set of actions.

Below you'll find a detailed comparison of the two user roles.

  White-labeled Mono Help Center for simple editing mode

We have created a dedicated Editor knowledge base for users using simple editing mode which is written with the specific user limitations in mind. It is fully white-labeled and therefore ideal for any end user of the Editor. Access it on https://help.sitecreate.pro

 

General design

The simple editing user role doesn't have access to Global Design but can use the simplified Quick Styling option accessible from the Editor's top navigation bar. From there, they can select the website's primary color and font family.

Both user roles have access to changing their website theme.
