How to pick which member groups can be assigned to new users by other member groups?

    I have a member group called Admins and a member group called Clients. When an Admin tries to register a new member, the member groups don’t display - the field is just blank. I would like them to be able to assign a new member to the group Clients.

    I have set the appropriate CP permissions in the member group, and checked member preferences, but can’t find a place that says which member groups another can assign to new members.

    Can you help? Thanks.

    Hi Marcus,

    For each Member Group you’d like them to be able to assign, set the group to Unlocked under the Security Lock section of each group’s preferences. Does that help?
