This is mind-numbingly easy.

This was the FIRST hack I did, myself, without knowing PHP at all.

It's really suite simple.

Go to admin/user.php

Find the function for editing a user. And the doupdate part as well.

COPY

PASTE

Edit out the bits you DON'T want them having access to (like USERGROUP!!! AND EMAIL!!! Witht he power to change those, they can give themselves admin rights or hack into your account)

Make sure you remove the references to the deleted options in the queries in doupdate, or you'll get errors.

Then you need to edit the mod/index.php and the finduser function to add links to the new edit function.

It took me less than 2 hours to do this, without knowing the first thing about PHP or vB code.

It's easy, but boring.
