Sharing Admin login password

Happy New Year to the FTH team!

In previous years, all officers used the same admin login password to log in to our club's website. I made changes to our FTH website and gave access to officers based on their role; the president was given access to everything. This change was announced at the Exec Comm meeting. This change meant that I was the sole user of the admin password. I encouraged the officers to let me know if they needed access to other features.

My question to you: is it best practice to delegate access to officers? what are the pros and cons of all officers using the admin password? Does FTH have a documented policy about sharing the admin password (I searched for this, couldn't find any documentation).

I'm asking because I want to give accurate information to the incoming VP PR.

Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions.

How your club manages the site admin user and password is up to your club.
FTH does allow the site admin to delegate the different parts of the admin console to multiple officers.
Sharing the site admin password is not required anymore.
Please read the documentation on delegation.

Thanks for your prompt reply, Brian. Yes, I had read that documentation before I sent the email.
