When updating the Duty Roster, some members get the "Available" option to the right of the role for adding themself. These members can easily add/subtract themselves.

But others get a screen for emails. At the top of such screen are the options for "Edit/Delete this roster" and "Insert new row". These member must select first option to add themself, and then Update.

Why do different members have different screens?

Initially I thought it had to do with "officer" assignment, but that is not true.

Tom-

Great question. This is a frequent source of confusion.

Long story short, those who get the extra links, are those with the power to edit the rosters. Yeah, I know, that much is rather obvious, but it leads to the next (the real) question:

Exactly who has the power to edit the rosters? The club's web site administrator gets to decide who permanently has such powers, via a list on the admin panel. The tricky part is that the Toastmaster of the first roster, also automagically gets roster-editing powers... even if he's not in the site admin's special list.

And before you ask, yes, I do mean that the Toastmaster of the first roster has editing power over all of the rosters, and the Toastmasters of later rosters get no special powers, even over those rosters.
