Re: Unable to access Edit User permissions X2.2.3a

Hi Dave, sorry for slow reply but I've been crazy busy here.

To answer your question, yes I am using Extended Profiles module. This module is the best thing since sliced bread IMO and it gives me the best possible control and customisations over my members accounts and profiles.

I think I should also explain that the I was trying to use that checkbox to assign account editing priviledges to a site member who needs to add/edit user accounts but I need to block his ability to mess about with system/module configurations (which is why I cannot give him full admin access)

Do I understand correctly that the "Edit Users" checkbox is redundant now so there is no need for me to worry that I cannot activate that checkbox? And I can give this member full user account management access just by assigning his user group access to the Extended Profiles module?

Thanks again for all your replies.

Hmmm ...

I looked at a XOOPS 2.0.14 install, and that checkbox is there, but it's not in XOOPS 2.2.4.

Do you have the Extended Profiles module (2.2.x only) installed and activated? That module has its own permissions settings that control which user profile fields are editable.

I'm using 2.2.4, and I don't see an "Edit Users" checkbox. Where exactly is it?

In my XOOPS website it is in Administrators area under Users>>Groups>>Modify Group. See my screencapture above where I have placed a red line around the checkbox that will not stay "checked".

That screenshot was taken from the Administrators profile and the "Web Admin" user group which we are looking at in the pic was called "Webmaster" in the default install.

Is it possible that this "Edit Users" checkbox is some remnant from my original XOOPS v2.0.13.1 that shouldn't be there since I upgraded to v2.2.3?

If another member here is running XOOPS v2.2.x which was upgraded from an old v2.0.x, would you mind checking in your Group settings to see if you have an "Edit Users" option?

Cheers for all your responses guys :)

Xoops version is v2.2.3a Final


I don't use this version (not recomended etc) - though there are some that do so you will need to be patient for the right person to come along...I will edit the subject header to see if that helps attract attention for you. In the meantime try a search on 2.2.3a user permissions - you may well find an answer. Sorry i can't be of more help!

LOL I only upgraded to this version in January this year because a few of the XOOPS gurus here absolutely insisted my site was insecure using v2.0.13.1 and I should upgrade as soon as possible.

It's caused me nothing but grief ever since (including having to dump a few nice modules that were never upgraded for XOOPS 2.2.x) but there's just too much been added to the site in the last 8 months so I am basically stuck with trying to make the best of what I got.

FWIW I tried upgrading to XOOPS v2.2.4 and the issue remained.

:(
