You cannot edit a `registered`. Only higher-level users have this power.

Hello, I get the same message but it's a new group I created in Joomla. However I can edit the user in the Joomla user manger just not in CB.

I am logged in the backend as a Manager and having this issue. Is there a setting in CB since I can edit the user directly in Joomla?

ACL is a bit confusing.

Thank you

[MOD EDIT]: Please do not reply to a year old topic. Simply create a new one and if you feel the old topic is relevant simply link to it at the top. Bumping year old topics to the top obscures search results by pushing, usually, very old and irrelevant information to the top causing a lot of confusion.

Users can't edit users that are above them in ACL. I do not recommend creating new top level usergroups. Create them as children of Registered so they inherit Registered permissions making things significantly easier. New top level usergroups end up inheriting from Public, which is just a permission configuration headache. You need to also ensure your Manager doesn't have the usergroup you're trying to edit to avoid issues with the higher level power check.
