User admin on front end

[lpa 22]

I need a solution to give some admin users a front-end page where they can create new users and edit existing ones. The existing and new users should only belong to a restricted set of roles.

 Is there some ready examples or modules to do this?

maybe this one: https://modules.processwire.com/modules/frontend-user/ (https://www.google.at/search?q=site:processwire.com+frontend+login)

Maybe you have good reasons to do this in the frontend but using the admin in ProcessWire might be simpler than you think: https://processwire.com/blog/posts/building-custom-admin-pages-with-process-modules/

Staying in the pw admin has the benefit that you have all the tools available: access control, collapsible fields, hooks etc.

Thanks!

Off course one option could be to use the normal user admin, but can it be restricted to allow editing users or creating new users  with only a restricted set of roles?

Sure, you can create a ProcessModule only for that purpose like shown in my blogpost and then restrict this module to your desired roles.

Yes, it can. See the blog post about the user-admin permissions.

Great, I think that will be enough for my needs.
