The tree on the left shows the hierarchy of user groups that are available on your Joomla! site. To view or modify permissions, click on a group in the tree.

The table on the right side of the window contains 3 columns:

  • Actions. The various actions for which you can specify permissions for the currently selected user group.
  • Component Settings. The permission option set at the component level, which can be changed with the dropdown control. Options are:
    • Inherited. The permission for this group/action is inherited from the site's Global Configuration.
