Adding and deleting group members

When you add a group to another group, all members of the first group inherit the privileges of the parent group.

Note: By default, the Groups portlet is on the Oracle Portal home page's Admin tab.

You must be a group owner to change group membership. Portal administrators can edit both the PORTAL_ADMINISTRATORS and the PORTAL_PUBLISHERS groups by default, plus any other groups of which he or she is group owner.

To add or delete group members:

    If you are not already in the Create Group wizard, find the Groups portlet.

  1. In the Groups portlet, click and select the group you want to work with from the list. If you don't see the group you're looking for, you do not have ownership privilege on the group. You can edit only the groups you own.

  2. Click Edit.

    Edit Group is displayed.

  3. Click the Members tab.

  4. In the Name field, click to add a user to this group, or to add a group.

  5. Click Add To Members List.

    The user or group appears in the Group Member List below, as well as an indication of whether the member is a user or a group.

  6. To grant a user or group authority to change aspects of this group, including adding or deleting group members, select Group Owner.

  7. To delete a group member, click next to the user or group. A confirmation dialog is not displayed.

  8. Click Apply to apply your changes and continue working on this page, OK to apply your changes and exit the page, or Cancel to exist the page without applying your changes.

Note

  • If the group contains many members, the Group Member List is paginated. You can navigate between pages using the drop-down list provided or the Next and Previous buttons. You can also use the Find field to go directly to a particular member.
