As admin only I can approve new registrations.

I want to let someone else be able to approve (and delete/ban) new registrations (e.g. when I am away).

I don't want to make anyone else an admin because that would give them power to mess up things on my server on which I have other websites (e.g. if they change Data Root that might cause havoc, or if they enable pdf Complete Forum Output that could overload the server), and also to mess up forums other than the ones they moderate.

Is it possible to give a moderator limited admin powers, or to make someone an admin and restrict their permissions? The main power I'm interested in is approving new registrations (and power to delete/disable users) though I might think of others.

Thanks

Simon Child
