I made a new user group for MyPoints admin with very limited permissions.
The only admin permission is "Can Manage MYPS".
* When they are logged in the 'mini-admin' cannot edit other users MyPoints.
* When I switch them to 'full admin' then they get the option to 'edit'.
What do I need to change on the 'mini-admin' group, so they can edit MyPoints?
Thank you.
I did what you have described, and my "mini-admin" had no problem editing another user's MYPS. I tried it as both Admin and Super Mod with just that one permission, and it worked with both.
Mybb is a bit weird with it's permissions system and additional usergroups also display groups. Are your mini-admins displayed as the mini-admin group? I believe the function is is_usergroup and checks to see if it exists inside of it...but have to double check that to confirm.
Just let me know if you can't get if figured out because I am pretty sure it works correctly.
Back-end
admin control panel > limited access to MYPS area
Works fine...
...my question wasn't clear enough.

Front-end
What I'm trying to get to work is the front-end:
(((Just in case...
If my shared server has downtime: the two little images show with and without the option to edit MYPS)))
Full-Admin status sees:
vs
Mini-Admin status isn't allowed to edit from the 'front end' of the forum:

BTW: MYPS is great, and most everything else seems to work fine
Thanks
OK, I just tested the front end with my "mini-admin" and I could edit the myps of other users. I do have it set so that only admins can change myps. You didn't create another group and call it mini admin or myps admin, did you? Myps might not be recognizing that group as admins.
Hmm..can you set the group to yes for "Is Super Moderator" in admincp and try that? If not then it's hard-coded for which groups are admins vs moderators. I may have to revisit that part of the code.
Do you have your mini-admins as moderators of any forums? Does the edit show up when they are in that forum?

I don't exactly understand your question.
If your 'mini-admin' is not a custom user-group then what is it?
Mine is a custom user group which also has limited back-end access.
Myps might not be recognizing that group as admins.
MYPS does recognize that group for back-end access, but not front-end (for easy edit)

OK, if you have 'mini-admins' who can edit the front end, but are not a user group, then what are they?
Thanks

Sure...
I'll be right back...
Didn't work.
So far, the only way I can edit from the front end is full admin settings, and judel's set-up works for him. I'll experiment some more, and check back.

My mini-admin was in the administrator group, I just lowered the permissions to just the one dealing with myps. You might need to change your settings so that super mods and admins can edit and try that.
Your way works on the front end, now I understand.
