Captain Privileges and Restrictions
What can captains do?
Many chapels find it helpful to share administrative responsibilities with other adorers without sharing all of the administrative privileges. For example, you might want "team captains" responsible for coordinating the hours on a given hour or range of hours throughout the week.
For these scenarios, use the Captain Role!
Captains have elevated privileges above normal adorers but less than administrators.

Adding a Captain
To assign the captain role to any adorer, edit their account and choose Captain in the Role field. You can create as many captains as you like.
💡 Pro Tip: As an administrator, create a test captain account and sign in to view the site as a captain! You can also do this as an adorer.
Finding All Captains
To view a list of your captains, visit Admin » Adorers and enable the Role filter. Captains have an empty shield icon, and administrators have a shield icon with a cross.
