Please feel free to correct typos and inaccuracies even to add new sections or pages to {{TGF_title}} help. To edit a {{TGF_title}} help page, click the edit tab. The edit tab at the top of the page for the page as whole. If parts of the page are edited separately, there is an 'edit' link to the right of the first line of the section. To edit a page you must have a user name and be logged in. (No logging in or user name is required to read help text.) If you are not logged in you will be prompted to do so. If you have a user name, you can enter your user name and password (if you elected to use a password) and log in. If not, you can click '''Create an account'''. On the '''Log in / create account''' pop-up, you can fill in a user name, password, email address, and real name. Only the '''user name''' required. Choose a name you will easily remember, such as a user ID you use elsewhere. You can use your Tower Grove Feed user ID, but that is not required. You do not need a '''password'''. We are more concerned with identifying who changed something than with securing the help site. You may wish to provide a password to keep others from editing pages under your user name. Choose a password you will easily remember. You may wish to use your {{TGF_title}} password, but that is not necessary. There are no requirements as to length or type of characters, but passwords are case sensitive. Provide an '''email address''' if you want to be notified when a page changes. Check "Watch this page" to receive notifications. Provide a '''real name''' if you wish it to be known who made a change or addition to the help text. Once you are logged in you can edit any help page you visit. {{TGF_title}} help text uses Wikimedia software. If you are familiar with editing in Wikipedia, then you should know how to edit pages here. Consult the [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents User's Guide] for information on using the wiki software, including navigating and editing pages. For '''typos''' and '''minor inaccuracies''', you should '''edit the page directly'''. When you save the page, check "This is a minor edit." For more '''complex changes''' it is best to propose changes in the '''discussion''' area. Developers watch for changes to pages and should respond within a business day. If you don't get a timely response, please email [mailto:support@towergrovesoftware.com].

Control levels

== Overview == The control level is the basic unit of system control and data management in Tower Grove Feed. Levels are organized hierarchically. When you log in into Tower Grove Feed, you log in at the level that your user profile is at. The base or root level is called the System level. Each client has a control level immediately under the System level and has at least one user profile at that level. The client may create an unlimited number of additional levels and assign user profiles to any of them. Levels control what data you can see and what data you can change. Each level, except the System level, has one or more ancestors and may have one or more descendants. Each [[Objects| object in the application]] is owned by a control level. In general you can see [[Objects|objects]] owned by your current level and its ancestors, but not its descendants. To see and change the data of a descendant of your current level, you can adopt the role of that descendant. You can adopt the role of any of the descendants of your user profile level. == Adopting a role -- changing your current level == Adopting a role is the same as changing your current level. When you log in, you will see that your current level is indicated at the top right center of the page. At the time of log in, the current level is the level of your user profile. The box in which the level name appears is a drop down that allows you to select any level available to your user profile, that is any of the descendants of your user profile level. Only Tower Grove Feed personnel can log in at the System level.
