    I'm using the standard Login/Registration snippets to allow users to sign up for a site. This is all working great.

    I need to give site admin access to the backend manager to see who's signed up, block users etc.

    If I give them access to Security -> Manage Users they can see all users, including the SuperUser and they could inadvertently/maliciously delete this user.

    Site sign-ups get assigned to a user group "XYZ" so how, via ACL's etc. can I give an admin access to Security -> Manage Users but only where users are in the XYZ group?

    Thanks, Mark

      No, there's no easy way to do that at this point. Either they have access or they don't. The only methods I know of to do what you want are to create a custom snippet or a CMP that lets them Manage specific users.

      It might be possible to do something in a plugin connected to OnUserFormPrerender.

        Thanks Bob.

        I might just write an external php/mysql script then.
