Adding user / all users are not applicable to Administrators

    I’m using Profile Builder on one of my projects. An odd issue appears: the role Administrator, which has all the capability on everything on the website, CANNOT add a user nor access the user list.

    I have confirmed that Administrator has access to every capability inside the Users section:

    • create_users
    • add_users
    • list_users
    • edit_users
    • remove_users
    • promote_users
    • delete_users
    • create_roles
    • list_roles
    • edit_roles
    • delete_roles

    When I tried to force visiting the default creating_user page, which domain/wp-admin/user-new.php, the system alert would be displayed:

    You do not have sufficient permissions to access this admin page.

    Reason: The current user doesn’t have the extra capability “editor” that is required to access the “Users → Add New” menu item.

    I have no clue how this may happen. It is a real pain. Did anyone ever face the issue and how to fix it?

    I just found it is caused by another plugin and it’s fine now. Thank you for the concern.
