===Managing user groups ($wgGroup)===
===Managing user rights($wgUserRights)===
Administrators can manage a few user groups, including [[Test wiki:Autopatrol|Autopatrol]], [[Test wiki:Patrollers|Patroller]], and a few others. If you are an admin, you can do this by going to a user’s userpage and clicking “change user groups” on the left-hand side. You can set how long you want the user to have the right, or you can choose to have it never expire. It’s up to you. A good idea is to create a second account to test these user rights on. Then you can see what the different rights do.
