Roles in Detail

User

	With the group management and the content’s visibility settings it is possible to target content to very specific user needs, for example, to specific locations or interest groups. Users that were not targeted do not see the page or plugin.
	Targeted users do have the right to see content published for them or their group. Users cannot only see the page or plugin; most plugins are asking the user to interact, for example, register for an event or rate their happiness.
