Manage / Add Groups able to use Copy Permissions (fix completed in vcs)

When Add Groups + Manage Groups permissions is given,
They are able to use the "Copy Permissions from", but they should not see that menu since they don't have "Manage Groups Permissions" permission.

Also, the drop-down menu should check to see if the "Founder Manage Only" flag is checked if they are not a founder.

Which dropdown menu?

I think he means that if you are authorised to copy group permissions you shouldn't be able to do it from groups with the founder manage flag set.

With regards to the copying of group permissions I think an ACL check like a_authgroups && (a_aauth || a_fauth ||a_mauth || a_uauth) to see if the Copy Permissions drop down should be displayed.

Then when the form is submitted each a_?auth should be checked and if true then those group permissions should be copied.

Apologies.

It is the drop down menu when creating a new Group in the ACP.

The "Copy Permissions From" drop down menu.
It should varify that the person using it first, has "Can alter permissions for groups" to show the drop down menu true/false, and also if the admin is not a founder, should not have the ability to copy group permissions from a founder protected group.
