I am an admin in paratext registry for my organisation. Is there a way that i can view and edit members of a back translation / aux project registered under a standard project? Or can i add myself as an admin to a backtranslation / aux project?
E.g I can see project X (vernacular - standard registration) and i can add and edit members from the registry or paratext (including making myself as an admin from the registry).  But I cant see or edit the member list in the BT even though it is registered under the standard project..

No, you cannot add or edit members (in the registry) on a project that receives it's registration from another project (Auxiliary projects and most back translations). If the back translation has it's own registration, it should appear in the registry.

So is there any way for Paratext organisation admins to add people to a back translation or auxiliary project, which is registered under a standard project? We are concerned that if the administrator of the back translation or auxiliary project stops working or passes away, our organisation will lose access to that information. At the moment, we can't see/edit the member list of these projects in the registry, and we (as organisation admins) can't add ourselves to the projects in order to see them in Paratext. Or if we are already on the BT/aux project as observers, we can't change our role to administrators, so still can't add new users. The system for standard projects, where we can see/edit the member list in the registry, and add ourselves as admins is great. But we really need this ability for projects which are registered under the standard project too.
