I was logged in as a network admin for a site on multisite.  I wondered if the fact that SPF was showing I had write permissions to the folder of another site was because I was logged in as a network rather than a site admin.

So I was adding a new user (Users->Add New).  I entered a username and email and set the role to administrator.  I also checked the box to skip the confirmation email.  Then I clicked the Add New User button.  That's when the error appeared.  As I said in a previous post, the user was created even though the error was displayed.

so... just to verify...

you logged in as the super admin (ie network administrator)...  went to a network site...  and in that network site dashboard, tried adding a user with the details you specified?  correct?

I dont seem to get an error message doing that...

is it repeatable for you?  do you have any other plugins that could be conflicting?

Yes, your list of my steps is correct.  It is repeatable.  I just grabbed the latest code and re-ran the same test, and the error occurs.  One note: the error only occurs if WP will actually create the user.  If I attempt to re-use an email address, so that WP won't create the user, I don't see the PHP error. And despite the error, WP does create the user.

Other than SPF, I only have 5 plugins on the test site, all network activated: Akismet, Bad Behavior, Google Analytics for WordPress, Google XML Sitemaps, and Ozh' Admin Drop Down Menu.

is this a test site? none of those should be an issue, but wondering if you can try disabling them and trying again?

I will try some variations tomorrow to see if I can duplicate...

I network deactivated all of them, so that my only active plugin was SPF, tested, and still got the error.  As a further test, I also switched themes, from the WP Twenty Eleven to the standard Genesis child theme, and got the same error, so I don't think it is plugin or theme related.

On an unrelated note, the WP admin bar shows up for me at the top of this forum, but all of the links I tried take me the forum home page, so I can't turn off displaying the admin bar.  Is there a way for me to do that or can you do it for me?

lol.  good point...  users are blocked from our admin...  and of course, wp has made the only direct way to disable a user's wp admin bar is in their profile...  guess we can add a plugin to globally disable it since Andy and I dont use it...
