    Does anyone know if it’s possible (maybe with an add-on) to hide the the super admins from the list of members in the control panel.

    The problem is that our client is giving accounts to multiple sub-users and they are not supposed to see that there are super admins but they should be able to create now users in their own group.

    So basically we want to have a members list that only shows the users from their own user group (ideally) or at least hides the super admins.

    Looking forward to some suggestions 😊

    Hi Mike

    Check the Member Group settings for ‘Super Admins’ there should be a setting there to hide the Super Admins from the Publish page member list drop-down (and the site members list too) which should do the trick for hiding them.

    Thanks MH, will try it out. Actually had seen the option, but thought it would only hide from the publish page.

    I’ve tried setting
    Include Members in Site’s Member List? to “No” for the super admins
    But they are still appearing in the member list for Admin Users
    Is there maybe another setting i’m missing somewhere?

    Hi Mike,

    I think, there isn’t any setting in EE CP for it and This can be achieved by putting a little hack into member’s controller file within the method view_all_members.

    This is a long shot but check the markup. If by change the Super Admins are given a different class then just use the CSS display property to manipulate that. Maybe?

    The next option I would consider would be javascript / jquery based. Hacking the core, small or not, means every update you’d have to rehack. Minor? Yup, but hardly ideal.
