Upgrading a user from User to Admin requires PW change?

Post by vAJ »

Seems that I'm not able to change a user from user level to admin level without them putting in their password or resetting it.

This is not helpful. Can someone drop a request in to have this fixed?

Yeah, my Director didn't like the fact he had to come over to my desk and enter his password... ;)
