About Contribute user roles and settings
Contribute lets you control access to your website by creating roles. Roles are collections of
settings that you create, each of which may be assigned privileges by the administrator of the site.
The roles you create reflect different levels of access to page creation, editing and deletion of
content, page design, and approval.
