Do I need to set roles in Plone?
Roles are common sets of Plone permissions for users who handle content. Examples include: contributor (can add content), editor (can edit content by self or others), reader (can read content by others), reviewer (can edit/publish content/metadata but cannot create new content) and manager (can access the Plone control Panel and ZMI for the Plone instance; this is essentially the Administrator role). If a user does not have a role, then he/she can create content (in a public directory on Plone or a user’s own folder), but will have very limited collaboration possibilities.
