Aurora: Manage member roles

The roles that members have determine what they can access and do in the community. These roles are usually a mix of the community default roles and custom roles your community team have created. Sometimes, for a variety of reasons, you may want to remove a role or assign additional roles to members to control their access to various community areas and features.

Community managers, moderators, and members with appropriate permissions can manage the roles assigned to individual members from their member profile page. 

Note: Moderators cannot assign or remove any roles that grant higher permissions than their individual roles.

    Hi BhuvanaM : Thanks for the explanation.

    In Khoros Classic we have the widget "Manage roles" do we have something similar in Aurora or do we need to select "Manage roles" from the header navigation?
