Manually Changing Member Groups in Admin Control Panel

[Troy Shaffer]

Hello,

I changed / updated member groups (both primary and secondary) for specific members via my Admin Control panel.

Initially, all was well. All the changes / edits appeared in my members' accounts like I expected they would. 

However, after logging out and back into the ACP, the members' accounts had reverted back to their original settings. This has happened twice now.

What am I missing? Is there a setting somewhere? Am I correct in assuming I can change these groups as the super admin for the site?

 

Thanks in advance. 🙂

The only time I saw this happen was with a browser cache issue.  As a test, try making the change with a different browser. If that works, try popping the original browser cache.

Or maybe some group promotion or achievement, etc.

Do you see any related changes in the Member History?

Yes, all changes were visible in the member history.

Randy Calvert,

You are correct. Caching was the issue. There was a setting in Google Chrome that was telling the browser to remember my past webpage visits. I disabled this setting and cleared the cache and all is well again. Thank you! 🙂
