I am trying to get all this done on the front end.
When users register I set their security to "Registered" in Joomla.

When they log in, I am restricting a field so they cannot edit, only view.

What I would like to do is allow elevated security on the front end for a user to edit multiple users, and this one field.

Using the SQL feature on the list view allows my admin to see these users.

Hope this makes sense.
