Description
I am the super admin or user 1.
I want to allow another person to admin users.
But he/she is able to change my password or even delete me under user management, user, list.
This cant be allowed.
What to do.
Please help.
#1
good point.
there must be additional permissions for administration of user 1. why this is not yet in core might be interesting to know.
#2
Is there not any solution to this? I very badly need a solution to this problem.
#3
Will this do http://drupal.org/project/ucreate ?

Looks like Anoop Lal won't be posting any feedback so I'm setting this to fixed.
Feel free to reopen if you think that is wrong.

I had given up hope.
But Ucreate came as a lifesaver.
Thanx
But there is a problem
On clicking 'Add' new user is created but Unable to send email.
Problem only with ucreate. Able to send email with core 'Add User'.
Any solution?
Would be a great help.

It looks like the 6.0 beta version hasn't changed to the drupal 6.0 mail notification format. In the .module file, line 290, I see this:
if (!drupal_mail('ucreate-create', $edit['mail'], $subject, $body)) {which is exactly like the 5.x version of the module. But drupal_mail() has changed. See:
http://api.drupal.org/api/function/drupal_mail
I don't see a "ucreate_mail" handler in the module. No emails are being sent.
A quick (and VERY DIRTY) solution is to replace this line
if (!drupal_mail('ucreate-create', $edit['mail'], $subject, $body)) {with
if (!_user_mail_notify('password_reset',$account)) {at .module line 290. This is the notify function sent by Drupal on a reset password operation. It completely disregards any of the ucreate settings including "welcome message", but at least it gets the job done.

Actually, forget this one.
I just went one step further and implemented the whole mail solution. I think this works pretty well.
The following is my replacement code in ucreate.module, from line 290, until the end of the file. Note that I commented out the existing line 290, added a line constructing parameters, and a function at the very end.
<?php
//if (!drupal_mail('ucreate-create', $edit['mail'], $subject, $body)) {
$par = array('subject' => $subject, 'body' => $body);
if (!drupal_mail('ucreate','notice',$account->mail, user_preferred_language($account), $par)) {
drupal_set_message(t('Error sending notification mail to user.'), 'error');
}
}
else {
drupal_set_message(t('Error creating user.'), 'error');
}
return $account;
}
function ucreate_mail($key, &$message, $params) {
$language = $message['language'];
switch($key) {
case 'notice':
$message['subject'] = $params['subject'];
$message['body'] = $params['body'];
break;
}
}
?>
