Could you please tell us the steps you follow to get to that page as a normal user? Also, show the output of this command: ```t v-list-users json | jq -r 'to_entries[] | "\(.key): \(.value.ROLE)"' ``` ---

The icon top right (arrow up) shows, that you’re logged in as admin and impersonated a user. This isnt a bug. ---

Yes, I am logged in as admin and then impersonated the user “hestia”. For normal impersonation, the admin sections do not show but at times it does. If I am impersonating a user, the impersonated user should not have access to the admin setttings. ---

Here is normal impersonated user without the admin panel / sections. ![image](https://forum.hestiacp.com/uploads/default/original/2X/3/3f81b34df5a16f9a748bd4f618820f484c21897f.png) ---

You impersonate as admin, you’ll have admin rights. That’s nothing to change. ---
