Other admins can't see rights of groups/users

ℹ️ Support

Hi everyone

I’m very new to Nextcloud and am using an automatic installation from my hoster.

When I give rights to a group or user to a folder other admins can’t see what rights these have in the folder details. Is there any way to make the rights visible for other admins or even better for group admins? So there is no way to tell who has read only rights nor a way to change this by others. Or did I miss something?

The Basics

  • Nextcloud Server version (e.g., 29.x.x):
    • 23.0.12 - 23.0.12.2
  • Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 24.04):
    • Linux 3.10.0-1160.119.1.el7.x86_64 x86_64
  • Web server and version (e.g, Apache 2.4.25):
    • Don’t know
  • Reverse proxy and version _(e.g. nginx 1.27.2)
    • nginx/1.20.1
  • PHP version (e.g, 8.3):
    • 7.3.33
  • Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? (Yes / No):
    • No
  • When did this problem seem to first start?
    • It’s always been like this
  • Installation method (e.g. AlO, NCP, Bare Metal/Archive, etc.)
    • I don’t know
  • Are you using CloudfIare, mod_security, or similar? (Yes / No)
    • No

We also face a sort of same problem.
We are helping organisations to move to Nextcloud and this is a blocking issue.
Our organisations have different groups.
Each group has a sub-admin who is responsible for user adminstration of that group.
A sub-admin

  • logs in
  • goes to the Accounts page
  • creates a new user

expected result
this new user has default the ‘group’ group.
sub-admin can create a new user

actual result
this new user has default the ‘admin’ group.
I cannot remove this role.
consequence this sub-admin cannot create new users.

I found on github this issue

How should you report issues? Here or in Github?

I got an email that the issue is solved.

Closed #52545 as completed via #52776.

How do I know in which release this will be included?

thanks

Haha! I guess one way to avoid waiting for a new topic being checked is to hijack a similar topic.

But I guess nobody knows any solution to my problem anyways?
