Assign the Site Manager role

The Site Manager role is useful for day-to-day management of your Totara site. While you may only need a single Site Administrator, it is often useful to share site management responsibilities between multiple users.

To add a new Site Manager you will need to log in as either a Site Administrator or a Site Manager, then follow these steps:

1. Go to Quick-access menu > Users > Permissions > Assign system roles.
2. In the table titled Please choose a role to assign, click the Site Manager link.
3. Select the user you want to give the Site Manager role from the Potential users column, either by browsing the list or by searching for their name. 
4. Click the Add button to add the highlighted user to the list of Site Managers (Existing users). 

Once you have added all of the users you want to be Site Managers, you can simply navigate away from the page, as there is no button to save. You can also remove users by repeating the steps above, but selecting the user in the Existing users pane and then clicking the Remove button.
