# Editor vs. Administrator access

 * Hello,
 * I have installed the plugin UAM on my website [http://groupadw.s-data.be](http://groupadw.s-data.be)
 * I want to be able to restrict backend access to a couple of pages for all users,
   except for me as an administrator.
 * So after installing the UAM plugin, I have selected for a number of pages to 
   be only accessible for my specific user group. This means that normally, the 
   only one to see the page is me (administrator)
    However, for one reason or another,
   Editors are considered as Administrators _(in the user panel, there is this sentence
   next to each editor: “Note: An administrator has always access to all posts/pages.”)_
 * Secondly, all editors can still see and access the pages.
 * Strange enough:
    1/ I have exactly the same configuration on another site, and
   there is no problem at all 2/ I have already deactivated all other plugins to
   see if there are any conflicts , but even that didn’t change a thing..
 * Can anyone help me out?
 * Thanks
    Nathan
