You will see:Member Updated appears. The new role shows in the Role column on Members. The member gets the new access the next time they load a page.
Who can change whose role
Softalon checks every role change on the server:
On the Owner's profile, the Role field is locked and shows Owner role cannot be changed. Use ownership transfer to change the salon owner.
Display role
The Display Role field on the same card is the title clients see, such as Senior Stylist. You can change it without changing permissions.
If something is off
I get an error when saving the new role
Either the member's current role is higher than yours, or the new role is higher than yours. Ask a member with a higher role, or the Owner, to make the change.
The Owner option is grayed out
Ownership can't be given through a role change. The Owner can transfer it from Settings βΊ Danger Zone.
Common questions
