In a users admin page if you scroll down to the ‘Groups’ and try to add the user to a custom group the ✅ button will appear as you can see in the image below.

However, when you press it, it does not disappear looking like the action did not complete. But if you refresh the page the user **was** in fact added to the group but the ui doesn’t reflect this.

Another page that would be better suited for a proper refactoring to Glimmer 🤔

In the meantime, here’s the fix
