Viewing Permissions in the System
Listing all permissions in the system is reserved for System Administrators and Blog Administrators (for users assigned permissions on an individual blog).
Viewing a list of all permissions in the system
To list all permissions (i.e. the combination of a user assigned a given role on a given blog) in the system:
Switch to the System Overview area of Movable Type by clicking on the blog selection menu and choosing “System Overview.”
Click Manage > Users from the System Overview’s main menu. This will open a listing of all users that exist in your system.
In the left-hand menu, click on “Permissions” to switch to the listing of System-Wide Permissions.
System-Wide Permissions screen displays a listing of each individual permission that has been granted to users on blogs. From this screen you can change to other filtered views of the permissions assigned to individual users, all of the permissions for a particular role, or the users that have permissions on individual blogs.
