I have a few admins (not super admin) they need to be able to edit other admin profiles but the following message is returned when they try :- You are not authorized to edit users with the administrator role.

Please can you help to fix this.
Thanks

Hi @marke13

Thanks for using PublishPress Capabilities. This is a security restriction in WordPress. This guide has more details on how it works and how to change it:

Thanks for your reply but I can’t seem to find the answer in this document. I only have the capabilities plugin. I would be grateful if you could help me a bit more.

Thanks
