Okay, I looked around the site for help on this but I didn't find anything -- may have not tried hard enough. Anyways, the site I help manage has around 500 pages, and on a daily basis I have to switch pages and remove pages to users so they can update and once updated, not have to worry about that page. So my question: Do I always have to go to each page -> option then add, or is there a way to mass add/remove pages for a specific user?

Ummm... I'm rather new to CMSMS, but from what I've seen so far, couldn't you set up user permissions and give each user permission for just the pages they are responsible for?  That way they could simply log in and update their own pages dynamically and you wouldn't have to do all that work.

Just a thought... :)

Well, what I mean is, to add a page, I have to go to each page editor, then go to options and add additional owners.

What I want to find out, is if there is a way to add multiple pages to a user instead of going to each page and having to do so.

What about creating groups of users?  Assign your users to specific groups and then, when new pages are added, assign those pages to the appropriate group.

First, add all the new pages.  Then go to group permissions, select each group and check all the new pages that are the responsibility of those group members.  In some cases, more than one group might be responsible for each page, but you are still cutting down the time spent doing the assignments.

I think that's how I would do it.
