How to Invite and Manage a Member on a WIX Site?

Posted on 2023-06-02 Updated on 2024-07-25

As an administrator, creating and editing members on your WIX website is a crucial skill. Granting collaborators the right access level empowers them to manage and contribute to your site effortlessly. In this article, we'll guide you through the process of creating and editing members, and even creating member-only pages on WIX. By the end of this guide, you'll have a comprehensive understanding of how to navigate the member management system on your WIX website.

How To Create & Manage a Member Role on Wix

To create a member page in the WIX dashboard, click on 'Edit Site' located in the bottom left corner. Alternatively, you can access the Site Actions menu to edit your site. This will launch the WIX editor.

To set a page as exclusive to members, navigate to the menu feature and access the settings for each page you wish to restrict. From there, go to the permissions settings and adjust the viewers of the page from 'everyone' to 'members only'. This process is simple and straightforward.

This will set a page to members only.

To grant access to a specific page, you must first create a member role. Currently, the page is restricted to all users. Returning to the WIX dashboard will allow you to begin the process of establishing a role. Once established, only members with that role will have access to the restricted pages.

To access the member permissions setting, navigate to the 'Members & CRM' tab.

To create a new role, locate the two buttons in the top right corner of the page and select the 'New Role' option. Proceed to enter the relevant role details and remember to save the changes. It is crucial to set the color for each role as it helps to distinguish between them. By doing so, specific members can access specific pages based on their assigned role.

Proceed to the settings for members and ensure that the appropriate members are assigned to their corresponding roles.

If you need to restrict certain pages from client members but still allow access to your staff, this is the area where you can configure those settings.

Changing Collaborator Roles & Permissions

As a collaborator, you have varying levels of permission to manage the site. If needed, you can modify a collaborator's role at any point using the Wix Owner app. This allows you to adjust the information they are able to access and the tasks they are authorized to perform.

To change permissions of a collaborator:

  • Go to your site in the Wix Owner app.
  • Tap Manage at the bottom.
  • Scroll down to Tools & Settings and tap Roles & Permissions.
  • Tap Collaborators.
  • Tap the More Actions icon next to the relevant collaborator.
  • Tap Change Role.
  • Select one or more roles for your invitee.
  • Tap Save.
