Hi,
We have distributed user management for our site, and have created a WordPress role for user management separate to the WordPress Administrator role.
This role works fine for user management in general, including for a couple of other plugins, but we can't determine how to allow users with this role to edit the 'Forum - Usergroup' field in user-edit.php. It's greyed out.
We tried creating a 'Manager' usergroup and checking all boxes without success.
Is there a specific capability or other setting we can adjust to unlock this for users without the WordPress administrator role?

You have enabled wpForo Usergroup synch, option, that's why you cannot change the Usergroup, however you can change that user's User Role from the same page, and the usergroup would be automatically changed.
Hi Chris, thanks very much for your reply. We actually haven't got the Usergroup sync enabled (see attached) becuase we do have quite a lot of roles for our particular use case, and the dropdown is unlocked for users that have the WordPress administrator role (also see attached).
What we are hoping to do is have this field enabled on the edit-user.php page so that our non Administrator role users that are user managers have the ability to manage users can also change the forum usergroup.
Is this possible do you think?
Tony
You can Just enable "Dashboard – Can edit member" Option from the Usergroup Options, For Example Enable it for Moderators, then those Moderators can edit the Member usergroup from the User's wpForo Profile > Account Tab.
