Hello,

I'd like to give administrator rights to a user on a Exponential site.
I must however keep the settings secret because there are some important passwords.

So, I thought I should asign the Administrator role with limitations, excluding access to the "Setup" section.

However, what will prevent him from "upgrading" himself to the complete administrator role as he will be administrator of the "Users" section?

I thought I could add a limitation on the "Users" section but I haven't found out if it's possible.

Would you have a tip for me ?

Thanks in advance,

Artturi Markko

he should not be placed below admin node
he should not be allowed to create new users in admin node
he should not be allowed to move users to admin node
he should not be allowed to access module role(->functions thereof )
