Managing general permissions

The General permissions category lets you specify a starting (home) page that users in the selected group see on entering the web site.

To set general web site permissions:

  1. Click the General category on the left side of the Permission Group dialog box.
  2. When you initially defined the web site, you specified the web site’s home page. If you want users in the selected group to have a more specific home page within the web site, enter the URL in the Group home page text box, or click the Browse button to locate the home page. You can choose to specify any page within the web site as the home page for the specified group.
  3. In the Group description text box, enter a brief description of the web site. This description appears when a user selects a group to join.
  4. You can either select another permissions category to modify, or click OK to apply your changes.
