A Site Admin has access that is similar to Site Owner and works great if you need someone to help out with managing your students and courses!
Permissions
A Site Admin has all the same level of permissions as a Site Owner with some exceptions:
- They cannot transfer account ownership. This means they cannot edit the Site Owner's email address or password details.
- They cannot set up a payment integration.
How to Create a Site Admin
To assign a Site Admin, head to the Users page of your Admin Dashboard to either create a new user or edit an existing one.
From the user edit screen, select the checkbox for 'Site admin', save your changes, and that's it!
That user will now be able to log into your Thinkific site with full admin privileges.
Notifications
Site Admins will receive email notifications for Discussions, Assignments and Communities.
If you would like your Site Admin to be notified of emails that are sent to the Site Owner, some emails like the Course Welcome Email include a CC field where you can add your Site Admin. If this field is not available for any Site Owner related notifications, we recommend setting up a forwarding rule within your email provider.
Important Considerations
- A user cannot be assigned as both a Course Admin and Site Admin, please select one.
- Additional Site Admins are available starting on the Pro plan and higher.
