WordPress Multisite: Super Admn lacks permissions on sub-site - wordpress

I have a WordPress MultiSite setup and everything works fine on the "main" site. The second site, set up in a subfolder, functions correctly except that the Super Admin account seems to lack permission to do anything. I can add a new Admin user which can post, add media, etc. But the Super Admin user can't do anything.
What could be going wrong?

Did you add the super admin as a user to the the subsite? In the Network Admin Backend you can add users to your subsite which you have probably not done and this is most likely to be the problem.
If this does not solve the problem check the rights and permissions of your network admin user with a Plugin or some custom functions: Does the network admin own the required rights (a role does not necessarily have all capabilities not even the network admin).

Wordpress user roles restrictions plug in

Hi is there any plug in that admin can share posts on each user? And only when a user log in on page can see their relative posts and updates of them?
You can use Advanced Access Manager plugin and you can manage everything in your site with this plugin from the admin panel.

Admin access to entire Wordpress site with plugin and is it safe?

I see that third party Wordpress dashboard tools like ManageWP or InfiniteWP have access to entire Wordpress site by installing theirs plugin on that site.
This way they have admin access to my Wordpress site so they can update plugins, do site backup etc.
How this is possible and is it safe?
As far as my knowledge says, ManageWP has two methods of getting admin access to the wordpress site.
Installing a Worker Plugin
Saving Admin username and password
Once they get the admin access, they view the wordpress dashboard in an iframe inside of the ManageWP panel. The rest of the controls happen via third party plugins installed by the ManageWP.
Coming to your next question about if it is safe, As per this link,
We take security very seriously. We had no security-related incidents in our history (and we’ve been around since 2010).
Their serves run over AWS Infra, so we can be sure that they have a solid server security, but I would still recommend not to host any sensitive data over a website which could control your wordpress site completely via admin panel.

wordpress user registration/profile plugin

I am trying to make a wordpress site which will allow users to register by themselves and log into the site and have a profile. IS there such a plugin that will allow me to incorporate this into my site? I have looked around and being that I have very little experience with making sites/wordpress I have decided to ask some experts.
I know with wordpress you get a "blog" sort of site, but i'm hoping that if the plug-in i'm looking for exists then I can make my site to look different. The reason I am asking for each individual member to have their own "profile page/ private page" is because I want to be able to upload data to their specific pages and they should be able to see the data without seeing others'.
Thanks for any and all help you can provide me.
If I can't find a suitable solution, I will try to build a site with joomla, I had gone with wordpress because I had heard that it was easier to use.

Wordpress change user to admin

I am building a wp site and am just about finished. I set up the site with the admin as myself, my email address and avatar. Problem is I need to deliver it with the client as the admin using his name, email and avatar so it is his avatar that shows up as the agent.
Can someone point me to the correct documentation that has dealt with this before or explain the best way to do this ?
Update:
I have added the client as an administrator but I still show up as the agent of the site (super user). This is a real estate site.
Would this be specific to the template I am using (agentpress 2.0) or some sort of setting in all wp sites ?
If you are do it via PHP Read this else you can add a user with admin privileges.

WordPress MU: Login from main page but not individual blogs

I recently upgraded to WPMU 2.8.6 and ever since, my users can't log in on their individual blogs, but they can log in from the main page.
My site is at blogs.mtwp.net (we're a school district).
So if a user goes to blogs.mtwp.net/BLOGNAME/wp-login.php, their password is rejected. If they go to blogs.mtwp.net/wp-login.php, they can log in and get to the dashboard from there.
But it's not all users. Site admins can get in just fine.
We're using wpDirAuth 1.4 if that makes a difference.
Honestly, I'm stumped. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks!
you would seem to have enabled the WPdirauth plugin at the top level blog but not on others. Only your top level blog will have the necessary information to connect to your directory.
Site admins are not typically part of your internal directory - they're a Wordpress user which means they can still log-in ok without needing to connect to Active Directory or whatever you're using.
Enable WPdirauth on all blogs that you need users to login to.
Try reviewing your wp-config file. You should see something like this:
define('SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', true);
Depending on how you've configured Wordpress, this must be enabled to log in to the dashboard of secondary sites.
