Ask Relatives To Bring Stories
Invite cousins and elders to claim their place and add the photographs only they still keep.
Roles
Who Can Do What In A Family Space
Every family space has roles that control access, editing, and stewardship. Higher roles can manage membership and settings; members and guests participate within what the family allows.
| Role | 中文 | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Family Owner | 家族所有者 | Creates and owns the family space. Highest authority over membership, settings, ownership transfer, and overall governance. |
| Family Admin | 家族管理员 | Manages members, approvals, and day-to-day family settings on behalf of the owner. |
| Co-Admin | 共同管理员 | Shares admin duties with delegated authority — helps run the space without replacing the owner. |
| Editor | 内容/活动编辑 | Creates and updates family content and events — posts, stories, and activities the family chooses to share. |
| Branch Admin | 支系管理员 | Stewards a branch or lineage segment — members and updates within that part of the tree. |
| Member | 成员 | Verified family participant. Can view shared content and contribute within the permissions of the space. |
| Guest / Public | 访客/公开 | Read-only visitor access when the family enables it. Cannot edit the tree or private records. |
