  • Hi,

    Can any user with full admin privileges (ALL capabilities turned on) be hidden from other users with admin privileges (with comparatively lesser capabilities turned on) in the ‘Users’ area (list_users)? I want to create a sort of hierarchy of administrator roles and users, where the user with the top admin role with ALL capabilities should be hidden (or at least undeletable, unremovable and uneditable) from other users with lesser admin roles and capabilities – in the ‘Users’ area. Is this possible with your plugin? And if not, is there any other way to achieve this?

    Regards.

  • Hi,

    I’m not really sure about the implementation, but one idea could be to create new capability with some plugin for advanced role management and to apply that capability only to your super admin. Once you have that capability, you would need to create custom WP hooks on user delete and edit actions, in order to reject super admin changes by other admin users. This is more advanced thing to do, and you should have some programming skills in order to achieve that. I would recommend posting this question on Stackoverflow or hiring someone from Upwork.

    Thanks,
