Add a new member to your language site
Overview
As a Language Administrator, you manage who has access to your language site as a registered member. Only site members are able to view “Members-only” content. To learn more about Members-only content, read about who can see your language entries.
Any FirstVoices user can submit a request to join your language site. It is your role to manage and approve these membership requests. You can also appoint users as members of your Language Team for the site where appropriate. Read more about team roles on FirstVoices.
