  • Within Communities, System Admins can grant a user Community Administrator rights.  
  • To configure Community Administrators, navigate to the Community Landing page, and select Setup link, the administrator should be on an URL that looks somewhat like this:

    • Select Setup > Sites >  Communities tabs
      • Select the community from the list.
    • On the far right, the admin will see a section that says "Community Administrators"
      • Note: Any system administrator is inherently a community administrator already and do not need to be added here.
      • Once there, add any users to be a Community Administrator

  • Once a Community Administrator is configured for a given Community, they will have complete access to that Community's setup area.
  • With the Community setup area, administrators are able to:
    • Change the Community design, Navigation links and email settings.
    • Manage users and groups
    • Block users
    • Manage & Create Sites within the community
    • and more!

  • If you are on Brightidea's Admin-based licensing, each user who is configured as a Community Administrator on your Brightidea site will count as an Admin license towards your Brightidea subscription.
