Administer user by role

Allows site builders to set up fine-grained permissions for editing and deleting user accounts by role, and a separate permission for creating user accounts. It is more specific than Backdrop Core's all-or-nothing 'administer users' permission, so site builders can set up "sub-admins" with permission to specific roles.

Installation

Configuration

Core permissions

Administer users DO NOT set this for sub-admins. This permission bypasses all of the permissions in "Administer Users by Role".

View user profiles Sub-admins should probably have this permission. Most things work without it, but for example with a View showing users, the user name will only become a link if this permission is not set.

Permissions provided by this module

Access the users overview page See the list of users at admin/people. Only users that can be edited are shown.

Create new users Create users, at admin/people/create.

Edit users with no custom roles Allows editing of any authenticated user that has no custom roles set.

Edit users with role XXX Allows editing of any authenticated user with the specified role. To edit a user with multiple roles, the sub-admin must have permission to edit ALL of those roles. ("Edit users with no custom roles" is NOT needed.)

The permission for cancel work exactly the same as those for edit.
