###**Control who accesses your blog. Role-based authentication**

Material Blog PRO Laravel comes with three default user roles: admin, author and member. Based on these roles, users have different permission levels to access and edit information.

**Admins** can handle both content and user management. They can edit, delete and add articles, article categories and tags, in addition to adding, editing and deleting users and roles.  

**Authors** can manage content. They can add articles and accompanying categories and tags, as well as edit or delete the articles they`ve written. They can also edit their own profile information.   

**Members** can only comment on articles, once logged in. They can also edit their profile information.

You can check out these roles & permissions in action by logging in either as admin, author or member in the [live preview] (https://material-blog-pro-laravel.creative-tim.com/?ref=devto). 

###**Manage content and users. Out of the box CRUD functionalities**

The Laravel-powered backend takes care of everything an admin should be able to do. You get fully implemented:

* **Category management**. You can create categories for articles and add a suggestive picture and description for each category, in addition to editing and deleting categories.
 
* **Tag management**. You can edit, delete and add article tags and color-code them for a better user experience. 
 
* **Article management**. This is probably one of the functionalities included in Material Blog PRO Laravel which will save you the most time, as every article has a picture, belongs to a category and can have multiple tags.
 

* **User & role management**. Users and their roles are listed, with the possibility of adding new ones or editing and deleting existing ones.   
 

* **Profile editing**. You have the option of editing the current logged in user`s profile, including personal details, contact information and password.
