How User Setting Levels Work

Every client account or user must be a member of a User Setting Level. User Setting Levels exist within a Site. User Setting Levels consist of a group of security and access-control settings used as a template. Each new user is assigned to a User Setting Level whose settings determine how the Server resources may be used. One User Setting Level might be quite restrictive, while another might allow more access to resources. For example, power users would be assigned to a setting level allowing greater flexibility in using the Server resources while guest users would be assigned to a more restrictive level where use of the Server resources is very limited. User Setting Levels allow an administrator to make changes at the User Setting Level that affect all users within the level. The basic profile of individual users can also be changed (overriding the template). Users can also be moved between User Setting Levels; users that are moved inherit the properties of the new User Setting Level, but retain any modifications (overrides) made by the administrator.  

The Server installs with one User Setting Level named Default Settings. Additional User Setting Levels can be added to define access to the Server resources for various types of users. You cannot delete the Default Settings User Setting Level when it is the only User Setting Level.
