[#2667] 1.7 RC bug in Back-end

That was the trick !. Of course, it was a new parent group. When I change and set child of "Registered", it works. Is it a way to manage new hierarchy from new parent groups ?. It is not mandatory, but useful to know.

I've created a bug ticket to further track and investigate this issue. Please for time being do not create new parents and only use the existing parents.

Ok, case is investigated:

- If your usergroup is not child of "Registered" group, Joomla won't let you log-in (logically). You will receive following error message:

"You cannot access the private section of this site."

- Nevertheless, I fixed the code for upcoming CB 1.7 stable, that will allow Super-Admins (and only super-admins) to edit and to save wrongly-configured users. At least you'll have a chance to fix the user in CB backend user manager that way.

I also added a safeguard on saving a user in CB: If the user is changed to an incoherent group, this error message will appear:

"You cannot change the Group of this user to a group that is not child of Registered or Manager as otherwise that user cannot login. If you really need to do that, you can do it in Joomla User Manager."
