Purpose of an Admin

As a part of managing the socials, the Project's PMs will need access to the pages to be able to post promotional/marketing material. They will also need to have the ability to add new PMs and other personnel to post and update the page.

Methods of adding a new admin to FB page

Before adding someone else as an admin, you yourself need to be an admin. Ask the previous PM or the Org to permission you as a PM on the FB page.

  1. Navigate to the facebook page. For CTI, this will be https://www.facebook.com/civictechindex

    CTI's Facebook page

  2. Scroll down the navigation on the left until you see settings

  3. Open settings and look for Page Roles in the navigation on the left. It should be about mid-way through all the settings.

  4. After the invite is sent, the person who is accepting needs to go to their home page > scroll down on the left to the 'Pages' Section > Click on Civic Tech Index > Accept Invite

  5. Change the option on the "Assign a new Page role" section from the default "Editor" to "Admin". Type in the email associated with the Facebook account of the user you are trying to add. Alternatively, if you are friends on Facebook, you can search for their account using just their name and add them directly.

  6. Once this is done, their account will show up at the bottom of this settings page with the role "Admin"

  7. You may run into an issue where there needs to be secondary confirmation, in this case have another Admin accept/approve the request
