Hey guys ^^
I was wondering if there was any possible way for someone with administration access to not be able to edit an Admin through the Admin CP.
We have a group called Developers that have admin access on our forum and we don't want anyone else other than Administrators to edit admins.
Is this possible?
Thanks!
Well you could add the administrators as super admins in your inc/config.php file. Then if they try to edit an administrator it will show "You do not have permission to edit this user because you are not a super administrator.".

To do that you need to alter the line which says:
$config['super_admins'] = '1';
in your inc/config.php file. Change the 1 to be a comma-separated list of admin ID's such as 1,2,4.

Or you could just deny the Developers access to the Users and Admin Permissions section of the ACP. Smile
