I added a new user in the User Accounts section of the Admin Menu... then when I tried to select them as the site admin in the Admin -> Site Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Other Settings -> Administrator (dropdown)





They do not show up in the drop down menu... How do I get them to appear here? Thanks.

The new user needs to be assigned an Admin role before it will appear in the site settings dropdown.

no, this is the requirement. you may need to restart application though, using the link in Host :: Host Settings.
