There are two types of administrators in your Mighty Network: Network Hosts and Network moderators. How many Hosts and moderators you can have are dependent on the plan you’re on.
  • A Network Host has full access to all admin sections, including payments, branding, and the ability to create and manage all Spaces and Collections.
  • A Network moderator has more limited permissions and focuses on moderating members, content, and features.
To manage the features inside a Space, you’ll also need to be a Space Host. You can learn more about that role in this article You can also customize the names of roles inside your Network and within individual Spaces. Here are the permissions for each Network administrator role:
Moderation clears content, it doesn’t rewrite it. A Network moderator can delete another member’s comment, reply, or Chat message, but editing another person’s words is a Host power. Posts are the one exception: posts are long, and moderators have always been able to fix a typo in one.Chat and livestream messages can’t be edited at all once they’re sent — not by the person who wrote them, and not by a Host. Delete the message and send a new one instead.
These content tools appear in the Network’s own feed and Chat. Inside a Space they follow the role you hold in that Space, so a Network Host or moderator who isn’t in a Space doesn’t get them there.Chat is the exception. You can delete a Chat message in any Space you’re able to see, including one you haven’t joined. A private Space you can’t see stays closed, and clearing a reply inside a Chat thread still needs a role in that Space.Joining is what gives a Network Host the role everywhere else: when a Network Host joins a Space, they join as a Space Host by default. If they’re already in the Space with a different role, joining won’t change it — they can set their own role from the Space’s three-dot menu, which is the Change their own role in a Space row above.A livestream’s chat is separate again. It’s moderated by the Hosts and moderators of that livestream, so a Network role on its own doesn’t reach it.

Changing Network Roles

You can promote any member to a Network Host or Network moderator from the Global Members list. This change does not affect their Space roles—they will keep whatever Space Host or Space moderator roles they previously had.

​
How to Change a Member’s Network Role

From the Member List:
  1. Go to Admin > Members > Member List.
  2. Select the three-dot menu next to the member’s name.
  3. Choose the new role.
On a Profile:
  1. Go to profile
  2. Select the three-dot menu in the upper right corner
  3. Choose the new role
When promoting someone to Network Host, you’ll see a confirmation modal.

​
Demoting or Promoting a Network Host Within Spaces

Network Hosts can join or leave any Space, regardless of privacy settings or plan access. When a Network Host joins a Space, they automatically become a Space Host. A Network Host can change their own Space role at any time:
  1. Open the three-dot menu for the Space.
  2. Select Change Your Space Role.
  3. Choose the new role.
This is a great way for a Host to preview a Space as a member. You can switch back and forth as needed. If a Network Host is invited to a Space as any role other than Space Host, they will still join as a Space Host.

​
Plan Gated Spaces

Network Hosts can join a Space gated by a plan by selecting Join as Host, without purchasing the plan. Their role in that Space can be changed afterward like any other member’s role.
