The five roles
Everyone in your church’s Displayte has one role. The People page says what each one does:
- Owner: everything, including billing and deleting the church.
- Admin: manages people, TVs, content and billing. Can’t remove owners or delete the church.
- Editor: adds and edits content, and chooses what plays.
- Operator: changes what’s on the screens. Can’t edit anything.
- Viewer: can look. Can’t change anything.
Who can do what
- Look at Home, Displays, Presentations and the Library: everyone.
- Manage Display (or Manage Multiple Displays), and turn a TV’s sound off or on: owners, admins, editors and operators.
- Make and change presentations: owners, admins and editors. That’s their pictures and order, how they play, signage, and the trash.
- Add files to the Library, and rename, move or trash them: owners, admins and editors.
- Add, rename or remove TVs, and choose which TVs stay on: owners and admins.
- Invite people, change roles and remove people: owners and admins.
- See and change billing: owners and admins.
- Download everything: owners only.
- Delete the church: owners only.
Which role to give
- A volunteer who changes what’s on the screens on Sunday: Operator. They can’t break anything: they can’t edit or delete anything.
- Someone who makes the slides each week: Editor.
- Someone who looks after the TVs and the team: Admin.
See Invite a volunteer.
Owners
- An invitation can carry any role but Owner. To make someone an owner, invite them, then an owner chooses Change role on their row on People.
- Admins can’t change or remove an owner, and can’t make someone an owner.
- A church always keeps at least one owner.
Good to know
- Your own row on People has no buttons. To change your role, ask another owner or admin.
- A new role works at once. So does removing someone: they can’t open your church’s Displayte any more.
- Everyone on your team is free. Invite as many people as you need.
