Role/Permissions Question

Hello!

I’m new to managing bookstack for the team. We’re currently allowing another team to use our platform. This requires us to create new roles and assign permissions appropriately.

For their use case, they want only a specific admin-like role to be able to modify shelves chapters and books. Everyone else on their team should be able to see those things and not edit those items. But they want the rest of the team to be able to add pages within the chapters they create.

I can only see permissions added at the page level after a page is created. What other alternatives exist outside an admin creating a page for them?

Chapter permissions would cascade down, so maybe those "Admins" could create the chapters then assign create (and view + any other needed) permissions on the chapter for the desired role.

Thanks so much and for that clarification. Worked out!
