# Primary Manager Manual

> For you, as you build and watch over a digital memorial space for a beloved family member.
>
> This manual will walk you through, step by step: accepting your invitation, tending to the memorial space, inviting family to take part, archiving photos and life stories, and — if you are the "Honoree" — setting aside a series of "Time Letters" for the people you love.
>
> We understand that reaching for a platform like this often happens in a time of longing and loss. May this become a warm, quiet place where memories can be kept for a long time to come.

## Your Role: Primary Manager

Every memorial space has one **Primary Manager (Primary)**. This is the "head steward" of the space — holding the most complete set of permissions, and carrying the most important responsibility of care.

| Role | Name on screen | What they can do |
|---|---|---|
| **Primary Manager** | Primary Manager | Manage members, archive content, governance settings (transfer, Successor, archiving) — all of it |
| Co-Editor | Co-Editor (some menus show "Editor" / 編輯者) | Edit all content together (life story, media, cover, etc.), but cannot change members |
| Viewer | Viewer (some menus show "Viewer" / 檢視者) | Browse and view only, cannot edit |

There are also two independent "identity flags" that operate separately from the roles above:

- **Honoree (isHonoree)**: means "this account belongs to the person being remembered, used during their lifetime." Only the Honoree can see and use the "**Time Letters**" feature (see Chapter 6). This flag is set by your dedicated Account Manager, and once set, it is fixed.
- **Successor**: you may designate one member as the "Successor," a marker of your wish for a future handover. In the current version this is a pure marker and does not automatically transfer any permissions (see Chapter 4).

> 💡 **A small note — the wording on screen may differ slightly**
> The platform currently uses slightly different names for the same role on different screens: the member list says "Co-Editor / Viewer," while the change-role or governance menus may show "Editor / Viewer" (編輯者 / 檢視者). They all refer to the same role. Please rest assured, this does not affect any feature.
