Changing Permissions

Permissions for student organization accounts are maintained by staff members in the Activities and Programs office. Whenever a change in Web publishers is needed, please fill out the Permissions Change Request form.

For all other accounts, when a Web site is created, one person is identified as the 'owner' of a Web publishing group. That person is able to add and remove members by using Outlook's Address Book. For example, if your Web site is www.uwec.edu/xyz, the site's permissions will be granted through a group called WEB.XYZ.

The owner of the group is the usually the person who makes decisions about the site and its publishers, but can be anyone who will be available to change members of the publishing group when needed. Ideally, it should be a permanent staff member. The owner of a faculty account is the faculty member.

More detail about how this is done is available on the Web Account Permissions page in the Online Help collection.
