You can either create a brand new role from scratch, or you can clone an existing role which is close to what you need for permissions and only make slight changes.
To create a new role for your community:
- Navigate to Control Panel > System Administration > Membership Administration > Members and Roles > Manage Site Roles.
- Click Create a new role.
A blank role screen appears. - Specify a unique name for the role in the Name field. This name is only displayed in the Control Panel.
- Specify a description for the role in the Description field.
- Choose the permissions that you want to grant to the role (using CTRL to select multiple permissions) from the Available permissions list and move them to the Granted permissions column using the single or double right-arrow key. The double arrow key will move all permissions to Granted.
- To include an avatar for the role, locate an image file to use via Browse or Choose file.
- Click Save. Your new role is displayed in the Site role drop-down list as confirmation that it was successfully created.
