I’ll cover basics of user management in Drupal.

Concepts I’ll cover will include:

  1. Roles and permissions in Drupal
  2. How permissions relate to other Drupal concepts like modules and content types
  3. Permissions, content access, and content creation
  4. Security implications of permissions
  5. How CAS enhances Drupal user management
  6. Troubleshooting user management
  7. Resources/tutorials for user management

I will demo key tasks such as:

  1. Creating a new user
  2. Assigning a role to a user
  3. Modifying permissions for a role
  4. (time permitting) How to adjust WYSIWYG editor defaults for roles

I want to leave 10 minutes or so for Q&A.
