DNN Authentication, Group Management, User Management Started By TechieMD I am in need of hierarchical groups, that can be administered by a group admin. The group admin would be able to assign roles to users in that group. Some roles would require a paid subscription, that would be paid for by the group admin. Some roles would be free.
