User Roles & Permissions
Roles
- SYS_ADMIN — full control over everything
- ADMIN — manages content and users, but can’t touch payments or override others’ work
- EDITOR — creates and edits content only
- Regular students have no role
Permissions
Content (Dockets, MCQs, Blocks, AI Prompts, Audio Sessions)
All three roles can create, edit, and delete content.
Tags and Taxonomy
ADMIN and SYS_ADMIN only. Editors cannot touch tags or taxonomy.
Comments
- Everyone can create, edit, and delete their own comments
- ADMIN and SYS_ADMIN can resolve or reopen comments
- SYS_ADMIN can edit or delete anyone else’s comment
Users
- ADMIN and SYS_ADMIN can look up users
- SYS_ADMIN only can change a user’s role
Payments and Refunds
SYS_ADMIN only. No one else can process refunds or retry payment fulfillment.
Scope
These roles only apply to the internal admin panel. The student-facing mobile and web apps have no roles.
Roles are held at the user level, not per course. A user’s role applies across all courses, not within one.
