Understand Admin user type messages in Settings › People
1 min read
Settings › People now explains two Admin situations clearly: trying to deactivate your account's last admin, and adding or editing an Admin when no role is set as the Admin role.
Before you start
You need to be an admin to manage people.
Steps
- Go to Settings › People.
- To deactivate an admin, open More actions on their row and choose Deactivate.
- If they're the last admin, read the message in the dialog. Make someone else an admin first, then try again.
- To add a user, open Add user and choose a user type.
- If Admin isn't offered, or an existing Admin's Role field is empty, open Role Management and set one role as the Admin role.
Result / verify
The last-admin message appears only in the Deactivate dialog, with no extra error in the corner. Once a role is set as the Admin role, you can choose Admin again and its role fills in.
