Users With Multiple Roles

When both roles are selected, the user receives the permissions of both Administrator and Author. At least one role must be assigned to every user.

Protected System Account

The user with the login admin is the protected system account. Its login, roles, and active status cannot be changed, and the account cannot be deleted.
