Roles explained
Access in Club Manager is decided by a member’s role plus a fine-grained permission matrix. Roles are set from a member’s file, not a global list.
The roles
Section titled “The roles”- Member — the default. No admin access.
- Coach — access focused on groups and trainings. Free and Community clubs can have one coach.
- Secretary — administrative access. Club PRO only, and one per club.
- Administrator — full access. There is exactly one, and only the current admin can hold or hand over that role.
How many organizers (staff with a role above Member) you can appoint depends on your plan: Free 3, Community 6, Club PRO up to its tier limit.
The permission matrix
Section titled “The permission matrix”For any role above Member, permissions are set feature by feature. Each feature has two switches:
- View — can open and see that area.
- Edit — can make changes there.
The two are linked: turning View off also clears Edit, and turning Edit on also sets View — you can’t edit something you can’t see. Two column-level checkboxes let you grant View or Edit across everything at once.
Permissions are grouped into App Access (which areas appear) and Functionality Access (what can be done in them). A role can also be given a set of mobile dashboard widgets — the shortcuts that person sees on their phone.
Self-editing
Section titled “Self-editing”You can always adjust your own dashboard widgets, but you can’t change your own role or permissions. The administrator role is special: the admin can’t demote themselves, and only the current admin can pass the role to someone else.
