==Config changes==
After making changes to Elvis configuration files on production server:

STOP button, then START in Elvis server application

==User management==
Individuals inherit permissions dynamically from groups, without their individual profiles showing the group's permissions. This allows us to give more granular permissions to certain users on a case-by-case basis.

===New users:===
Any new user added in LDAP will be pulled into Elvis with no default permissions or rules.

Note: New users won't have any permissions until they are added to at least one group on the LDAP server.

==Lingo==
*'''Permissions''' and '''capabilities''' dictate which tools users can access.
* '''Rules''' dictate which files users can access. We have only one rule that gives users access to all existing top-level directories; if you make a new one, be sure to add it to that rule.
* '''Perspectives''' allow us to set up a UI for groups of users. You can hide certain parts of the existing UI (taxonomy, import button, etc.) and add saved searches for that group of users.
**To create a perspective: Make Elvis exactly as you want it to be for that group, then click "Create new perspective" to save your current setup.
