New role in the WMS: Site Administrator
A new role,聽Site Administrator,聽has been added to the 麻豆AV Web Management System (WMS).
What is it?
The Site Administrator serves as the primary contact and oversees the quality and overall objectives of their site. Replacing the now defunct designation of Primary Site Manager, this new role has been created to help ensure quality and reduce complexity for Site Managers and other contributors.
What has changed?
In order to minimize affecting productivity, WSG has ensured that Site Managers will聽retain access to most features in the WMS. The only change will be the loss of access to Site Settings which are configured when first setting up a WMS site.
What can a Site Administrator do?
Apart from modifying the Site Settings, Site Administrators currently have access to the following features:
As the primary point of contact, Site Administrators will also be receiving pertinent聽emails and notifications about their sites.聽They will also be able to make requests to add or remove roles for Site Managers, Editors and Reviewers.
How do I become a Site Administrator?
In most cases, individuals formerly designated as the聽Primary Site Manager would be automatically promoted to Site Administrator.
Prospective candidates must already be a聽Site Manager聽and be prepared for the responsibilities of managing their website and team of Site Managers as well.
They must also be endorsed by the Site Sponsor, who has the right to request to聽add or remove Site Administrators. Ideally, each site would have only聽one Site Administrator although a maximum of two per site will be allowed in certain cases.
If you do not know who your Site Sponsor is, or if you are unsure if you are already a Site Administrator, please contact the itsupport [at] mcgill [dot] ca (IT Service Desk).
