    Default testing roles

    I'm a site administrator. How can I test the roles with my copy of C3?
    Is not possible to create more than one connection to the same site
    (and have different roles applie to everyone)...

    Default Re: testing roles

    My personal approach is to generate the Connection Keys for each role to a
    file, and on a separate installation of Contribute (e.g., on a user's machine),
    I'll apply the keys one at a time, and do the necessary testing. When you click
    a key to use it, and the site already exists, it will prompt whether to
    override the existing site definition.

    I avoid doing this on my own machine so it doesn't affect my ability to
    administer the site in question.

    Default Re: testing roles

    Simmetry,

    Here are a couple of ways that you could test the roles.

    1) If using connection keys, you could simply have keys for each of your roles
    on your system and then by double clicking one it would load it and configure
    Contribute to use it. Then once you tested it, you could double click the next
    one and test it. It will take less than a minute to switch between the keys.

    2) Edit your current connection and on the last step select the role you want
    to test. This takes a little longer than the first option but achieves the same
    result.
