Roles & Permissions
Every Member of a Guild has one of three roles. Roles determine what a Member can do within the Guild and are displayed on the Members page. The page also includes a Presenters group for Members who have shared Presentations; Presenter is a content grouping, not a separate permission role.
Organizer
— Full admin access to the Guild. Organizers can manage Guild settings, create and edit Events, manage Members (promote, demote, and remove), connect Stripe for Monetization, configure Integrations, set up Membership Forms, and send Messages to the community. Organizers also see a Settings link on their own Member card for quick access.Editor
— Can create and edit Events and Presentations on behalf of the Guild. Editors help Organizers manage content but cannot access Guild settings, manage Members, or connect payment providers. This role is ideal for co-organizers or trusted community members who help run Events.Member
— Can attend Events, create personal Presentations, and participate in the community. Members cannot create Events on behalf of the Guild or access Guild settings. This is the default role when someone joins a Guild.Each Member card on the Members page shows the person's profile photo, background photo (if they have one), name, and any Guild badges they have earned. The groupings make it easy to see who does what in the community at a glance.
Managing Members in Settings
Promoting & Demoting Members
Organizers can promote any Member to Editor or Organizer, and demote an Editor or Organizer back to Member. To change a Member's role, navigate to the Members page and use the role management options on their Member card.
An Organizer cannot demote themselves. To step down from the Organizer role, they must first ensure another Member has the Organizer role, then have that person change their role. This prevents a Guild from being left without an Organizer.
A Guild can have multiple Organizers. This is recommended for active communities so that administration duties can be shared and the Guild remains manageable even if one Organizer is unavailable.
Removing Members
Organizers can remove any Member from the Guild. Removing a Member revokes their role and removes them from the Members list, but does not affect their attendance records at past Events.
Members can also leave a Guild on their own at any time from the Guild's profile page by clicking the Leave button. This works the same way — their role is revoked and they are removed from the Members list.
Exporting Member Data
Organizers can export the full member list as a
CSV file
for use in external tools, mailing lists, or analytics. The export includes each Member's name, email, role, and any data collected through Membership Forms.Importing Members by CSV
Organizers can import Members from a CSV file in Guild Settings. The importer accepts email addresses and, when present, first and last name columns. Members who have already joined or already have an invitation are skipped automatically.
Review before sending
— CSV imports are submitted for platform admin review before invitation emails are sent. This keeps imported lists from bypassing approval and spam checks.Invitation-based access
— Imported people receive invitations after approval. They still sign in normally and accept the invitation before becoming Members.Large lists
— Larger files are uploaded in batches with progress shown in the import dialog, so Organizers can see how many records were submitted or skipped.Membership Forms
By default, anyone can join a Guild by clicking the Join button. For communities that need more control, Membership Forms let Organizers collect information from prospective Members and optionally require approval before granting access. See the Membership Forms page for full details.
Managing Event Attendees
Guild membership is separate from Event attendance. For managing attendees at individual Events — including RSVPs, waitlists, and ticket holders — see Ticketing & Payments.
