Manage community membership

As a community owner, it is the responsibility to manage community membership. For example, you might occasionally need to change the role of a community member to increase or restrict the changes they can make to community content. Or, if a community member is not an active contributor and no longer needs to be a member of the community, you might want to consider removing them from the membership list.

You must be a community owner to edit membership roles. To remove someone from the membership of a community, we must be the community owner or the member who is being removed.

Community members can remove themselves from a community's membership by selecting Community Actions > Leave Community when they are logged in to the community.

To manage community membership.

  1. From the I’m an Owner view, click a community to open its Overview page. If we are not already logged in, we are prompted to do so.

  2. Click Members in the navigation pane and do one of the following.

    • To change a membership role:

      • Click Edit next to the member whose role to change.

      • Select a role and click Save.

    • To delete a member:

      • Click Remove next to the member to remove.

      • Click OK to confirm the change.
