Optionally, you can disallow users to link and unlink accounts from the usercp.

the cmps issue is likely due to any variables being used by this hack not been globalised to cmps... if we can find the variables then we can fix it

With

{
    print_cp_no_permission();

Thanks for that.

anyway to get it to work with the 'unalterable admins' setting as well? It seems you can edit an unalterable users linked accounts.
