Thanks! That did work. However, is it at all possible to set "defaults" for any user being created via the console.
When creating a user, they still have to go through the process of saying when the person can register, their access duration, and assign their role. I'd rather when they click "create" that it auto-generates the role and their registration window. Even if it's changeable, it'd be really nice to have that all setup by default. Also, when I logged in with the account, it opened to the Dashboard and complained that the user didn't have permission to see the default-generated data. I also don't know that I want the guest creators to be able to see all users. Not a huge deal, but it's definitely not as "clean" or smooth as the 3.x Guest Management interface. The reason why it matters is that our Front Desk workers frequently change, and when they have to go in and assign roles, etc, they actually need some training on it. With the old interface, we could just have a link on the computer's desktop, and when they got to the form, it was all completely self-explanatory with the default values being perfectly valid. Thanks again for all your help!
