Newscoop 4.4 for Journalists and Editors
How permissions change the interface
The appearance of the Newscoop administration interface changes, depending on the permissions that a particular staff member has.

A typical staff user (a section editor or journalist) will only see some of the options available to a fully authorized administrator (such as the publisher, or senior manager). Newscoop calls these differing roles User Types.
