# Team Members

> Invite bandmates, managers, or anyone else to help manage your site

## What is a Team?

You don't have to run your site alone. As a site owner you can invite other people to help manage it. They get their own Monophonic login and can add tracks, post shows, upload photos, and edit your site's design, all without you sharing your password.

This is handy when:

* Your manager posts your tour dates while you focus on the music
* A bandmate keeps the merch section current
* A label staffer looks after one of the label's artist sites

Inviting people is **free**. Team members don't cost you anything extra and they don't need their own subscription.

<Note>Team members are per site. If you manage several sites, someone you invite to one site sees only that site. Invite them to each site you want them to help with.</Note>

## Owners and Editors

There are two roles, and everyone you invite is an **Editor**.

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Owner" icon="crown">
    You. The person who created the site and pays for it. There is exactly one owner per site.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Editor" icon="pen-to-square">
    Everyone you invite. They can run the day to day of your site but can't touch billing, domains, or the team.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

Here's the full split:

| What they can do                                                   | Owner | Editor |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------ | :---: | :----: |

| Set up and manage domains                                          |   ✅   |    ❌   |
| Billing and subscription                                           |   ✅   |    ❌   |
| Invite or remove team members                                      |   ✅   |    ❌   |
| Add more sites                                                     |   ✅   |    ❌   |
| Delete the site                                                    |   ✅   |    ❌   |
| Leave the site                                                     |   ❌   |    ✅   |

<Warning>Editors can edit your site's Settings, including its design and info. Only invite people you trust with your site.</Warning>

## Inviting Someone

You can have up to **5 team members** per site, on top of yourself.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Team page">
    Click **Team** in the left navigation. You'll only see it on sites you own.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter their email">
    Under "Invite a Member", type the email address of the person you want to add and click **Send Invitation**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="They get an email">
    We send them an invitation with a link to accept. It works whether or not they already have a Monophonic account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="They accept">
    Once they click the link and sign in (or sign up), they show up in your Members list and can start working right away.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Info>Invitation links expire after **7 days**. If someone misses the window, just send a new invitation.</Info>

### Pending invitations

Until someone accepts, their invitation sits in a **Pending Invitations** list on your Team page, showing when you sent it and when it expires. Click **Revoke** next to an invitation to cancel it. The link stops working immediately.

The Team page shows "X of 5 seats used". Pending invitations count toward that total, so revoke any you no longer need if you're running out of room.

## Accepting an Invitation

If you're the one being invited, click the link in the email and:

* **Already signed in to Monophonic?** You're added on the spot and dropped straight into the site.
* **Have an account but signed out?** Sign in and you'll be added.
* **New to Monophonic?** Create an account and you'll be added once you're verified. You don't need a subscription or a trial to be someone's editor.

<Warning>Sign in or sign up with the same email address the invitation was sent to. Invitations are tied to that address, so a forwarded link won't work for a different account.</Warning>

Once you're in, use the site switcher in the top navigation to move between your own sites and any sites you've been invited to. Sites you help manage look just like your own, minus the Domain and Team pages.

## Removing Someone

On the Team page, click **Remove** next to any member and confirm. They lose access to the site immediately and it disappears from their site switcher. Nothing they created is deleted, and you can always invite them back later.

## Leaving a Site

If you're an editor and you're done helping out, open your **Account** page and click **Leave This Site** in the Danger Zone. You'll lose access right away, and the owner can invite you again if you change your mind.

Owners can't leave their own site. If you want to shut a site down, delete it from your Account page instead.

<Note>Deleting your account only removes sites you own. Sites you were invited to stay right where they are, minus you.</Note>
