Bug: logic on setting admin/super-admin status of user proflle is not consistent
Reported by dleffler | April 12th, 2012 @ 05:21 PM | in 2.0.7 (closed)
It appears that an 'admin' user can create another 'admin' user, but can NOT change the admin status once the user has been created.
- basic logic is that an 'admin' can create/edit other admins and other non-admin users
- super-admins can create/edit all users (except user #1 which should only be edited BY user #1)
We may have to limit the list of users displayed so NO super-users are displayed for an admin user.

Have already implemented admin' users do not see super-admin users in manager users list.

It would seem logical that
- ONLY THE super admin (user #1) should be able to create/change other super-admins
- ONLY THE super admin (user #1) should be able to view/change the #1 account
- only super-admins should be able to create/change admins
This logic would change the manage user operation somewhat.

(from [ec2b79ffb886110a243b5fa916ffd090bddda318]) Should provide more consisten logic for setting admin/super-admin status of user proflle (now only the REAL super-admin can create/change other super-admins, and only super-admins can create/change regular admins. Also only the real super admin can display/change the real super-admin record. Also fixes some (initial) sorting issues on the manage users display [#577] https://github.com/exponentcms/exponent-cms/commit/ec2b79ffb886110a...

- State changed from “new” to “resolved”
We'll call this one closed, unless we need to change the logic
