There are several inheritance rules you should take into account before setting up the permissions:
- Categories inherit permissions from the component level permissions;
- Contests inherit permissions from the component level permissions;
- Entries inherit permissions from the contest level permissions. This allows you to setup unique permissions for the specific contest.
