# Space hosts

### Permissions:

Space hosts can configure many of the permissions for their spaces.

They can access these by accessing [https://hub.transition-space.org/s/\*\*YOUR-SPACE-NAME/space/manage/security/permissions](https://hub.transition-space.org/s/**YOUR-SPACE-NAME/space/manage/security/permissions)

You access this by clicking on the grey settings wheel in your space and clicking on 'security'

You will then see the settings that can be changed

You can change any of these settings to your preference. If you would like advice about the implications of these settings then please ask in the[ space-hosts Mattermost channel](https://mattermost.transition-space.org/space-hosts/channels/town-square)

### Notifications

By default, users will have any posts in spaces they are members of added to their daily digest email.

### Archive

Space hosts are able to 'Archive' spaces

When spaces are archived:

- <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 13.5px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: pre-wrap; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); display: inline !important; float: none;">All content is hidden to non-admins. It is no longer searchable (even by members of that space)</span>
- <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 13.5px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: pre-wrap; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); display: inline !important; float: none;">Admins can 'un-archive' it at a later date and make it visible/ searchable by members.</span>
- <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 13.5px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: pre-wrap; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); display: inline !important; float: none;"> The content remains accessible to admins even when in an archived state.</span>
