Hello everyone! I’m trying to make a user an admin, I have tried going to admin/users/ and clicking on the Grant Admin and Grant Moderator buttons. If I go back to my user list, I can see that the user was granted those rights. However, as soon as the user logs in, the access is automatically revoked and reverts back to a regular user. I have also tried logging in via SSH and granting admin access to the user manually, butI get the same result where the user logs in and is reverted back to regular user rights… What is going on here? --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/cant-make-user-admin-reverts-when-logging-in/59186)._
