Assign or unassign a site for editing

Mark a site as actively being edited to signal to your team it's in progress. How assignment affects visibility and access.

You can assign a site to a team member to give them access to work on it. Use the Team Permissions settings to manage which team members are assigned to a site.

Account Administrators and Content Administrators are automatically assigned to all sites in the account. You can also assign sites to team members with other roles, such as Editor, Author, or Sender.

Assign a Site to a Team Member

To assign a site to a team member, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Sites and Templates dashboard.

  2. Select the site you want to assign.

  3. Open the Site Details menu and select Team Permissions.

  4. Click + Add User.

  5. Select the team member you want to assign from the dropdown list.

The selected team member will be added to the site's list of assigned users.

Can't Find a Team Member?

If the team member doesn't appear in the dropdown list, check the following:

  • The user is already assigned. Check the existing list of users under Team Permissions.

  • The user hasn't been invited to the account. Invite the user to join your Zoomforth account before assigning the site.

To invite a new user, your account must have at least one available license. Follow the instructions in the relevant article on inviting a user to your Zoomforth account.

Unassign a Site from a Team Member

To remove a team member's assignment to a site:

  1. Go to the Sites and Templates dashboard.

  2. Select the site you want to manage.

  3. Open the Site Details menu and select Team Permissions.

  4. Find the team member you want to remove.

  5. Click Remove next to their name.

The team member will be removed from the site's assigned-user list.

Note: Unassigning a user removes their assignment to that specific site. It does not necessarily remove them from your Zoomforth account or change their account-level role.
