# Permissions for posts

In order to be able to use or administer posts, the corresponding global or group-internal permissions must be assigned by the admin.

## Global permissions

At the global permissions level, there is currently only the permission `Moderate posts`.
This permission allows a person in your church to view and edit reported posts or comments.

## Group-internal permissions

There are two permissions at group-internal level:
The `Create posts` permission authorizes people to create posts in the corresponding group.
The second permission, `Manage posts`, should generally only be assigned to group leaders, as it allows the person to change the group-internal permissions for posts without the person having to have the global permission `Manage permissions (administer persons)` that is normally required to make permission changes.

The ***Group settings for posts*** are activated for the person concerned with the group-internal permission `Manage posts`. Various settings can be made there, including who is allowed to create posts. For example, a setting previously made via the group type can be overwritten.
This is shown as follows in the permissions management:
