Assign a content "Manager" role to a "Registered" user

Add new Joomla "Manager" to the site

• Person can log into the "Admin" panel and manage site contents - create menus - create pages - create dynamic page structures - manage the "media manager" to control document and image content only
• All other access such as component management - manage the Calendar - zOOm media gallery - template control etc... is not available to them

This a 2 step process:

1. Note: School staff member must:
   1. First go to the web site front-page,
   2. Log into the "Members Area" (MIS-ID and password required)
   3. This "pulls" the persons MIS account "out" of the MIS and into the Joomla "User manager"
2. After this - the Joomla administrator logs into the "Admin" panel
   1. Clicks open the "User Manager"
   2. Clicks on the users account 
   3. Selects the "Manager" role/ "Group" and "Save"

The user now can manage or update content but not the Calendar etc...

This allows both "Managers" and "Administrators" to log into into the "Admin" panel @ siteName/wcms/administrators (if front-page link is disabled...)
