i tried to duplicate an admin role but the interface to not allow this (system role are not in the combo list of choice)


i tried to create a new manager role based on the genuine manager one but this one can't have access (view) systems infos.


i only need a admin role with "hands tied" but  and eyes on all.

You can't duplicate the admin role as it isn't really a role (admins are given ALL capabilities).

What you probably want to do is to duplicate the Manager role and then turn lots of stuff off. 

I have a role on one of my sites called 'Observer' that may do what you require. I have attached the export BUT you should still check the capabilities are appropriate for your needs.

Hi Howard,
I found your post because I'm looking for a observer-role and your file .xml I think is the solution... but how can I import to my platform?
Thank you very much for your answer.

David.
