Component body

Default Roles allows multiple roles to be granted (and/or revoked) by each group. This is useful if you wish to use membership in certain groups to grant site-wide roles/permissions. For instance, you could have an "Editors" group, whose members will be automatically granted several appropriate roles at the time they join the "Editors" group.

People often ask what the difference is between OG Default Roles and other modules. At the time of writing this, there are several modules such as og_promote that will grant roles based on group membership, but OG Default Roles is the only module that allows any group to assign and/or revoke multiple roles upon a user joining or leaving each group.
