User Permissions allows you to adjust Site Owner, Site Administrator, and Site Contributor titles the Grow Publisher Portal.
Add a Site Administrator, or Site Contributor
Locate the User Permissions tab in the side rail of your Grow Publisher Portal. Then, select the button to Add New User:
This will then give you the option to select what kind of user to add, and allow you to send them an invite to join Grow:
User Permissions Levels
Site Owners
A Site Owner is a user who owns and works on the site.
- This person can access and interact with all site settings
- They are able to access importer tools in the Grow portal (CSV importer, Automailer importer)
- They can delete extra sites they’ve created
- They can add other users to the site (site administrators and contributors)
- They can transfer/appoint ownership to a new site owner
* To prevent fraudulent activity, publishers with sites utilizing Journey by Mediavine ad management need to contact the Journey Support Team to authorize changes in site ownership.
Site Administrators
A Site Administrator is a user who has the same access and permissions as a Site Owner, with a few key differences.
- Site Administrators cannot use importer tools in the Grow portal (CSV importer, Automailer importer)
- They cannot accept Terms of Service updates
- They cannot delete/remove a site from the Grow portal
- They cannot transfer site ownership to a new owner
Site Contributors
A Site Contributor is a user who works on the site but is NOT an owner. Typically, this is a Virtual Assistant or Developer.
- This person can see and interact with all site settings
- They cannot use importer tools in the portal (CSV importer, Automailer importer)
- Site Contributors cannot invite new users to the site
- They also cannot delete a site from Grow
Once you've sent your invite, your new Site Owner/Site Administrator/Site Contributor will receive an email inviting them to join you on Grow, and an email once they've accepted!
