XF 1.1 User Group's Permission and User's Permission Inconsistency

[Shyuan]

Hi All,

My user group "Registered" has its own permissions in it. But if I go to List All Users > UsernameA > Permission, UsernameA's permissions are all set to "Not Set(No)". UsernameA is under the "Registered" user group, may I know why didn't his permissions follow the permission of "Registered"?

Thank you.

User permissions don't reflect group permissions. It's just an additional layer of permissions that can be defined which merges with the group permissions.

This reminds of a previous suggestion I made:

Hi Jake, thanks for your response. And I have seen your thread. Thanks for the link

So, as long as I do not touch the UsernameA's user permission (leaving them all as 'Not Set (No)'), then his permissions will basically follow the "Registered" permissions, unless I customize/change certain of UsernameA's permissions then his permissions will slightly be different from other "Registered" members? am I correct?

Thank you

Correct.

Thanks again. I accidentally a user permission. So it appears under the section "User Permissions". I find no way to remove it. May I know is that necessary to remove it via database or is there any way of doing it in admin panel? Thank you

Change it to Not Set or Inherit (the gray one).
