| The **Sync user across all login stores** checkbox is only displayed if the currently logged in user is designated as a '**special user**' and they are logged into the primary server in a synchronisation system. If this checkbox is checked, when the **OK** button is clicked the user's details are synchronised to all the stores that the user is allowed to login to, whichever sites those stores are Active on. In this way, an administrator in a synchronisation system is able to edit user permissions and settings and have them automatically synchronised to all relevant sites, rather than having to log in remotely to those sites and configure permissions locally. As you can imagine, this is a powerful feature, and can have unintended consequences. Therefore as of 2025-11-04, there are restrictions on who can be configured as a '**special user**'.
