Site Owners unable to see 'New' in other People and Groups permissions groups

[Chris_Clark1968]

Hi,

I have two users who are the Admin for one of the SharePoint sites. and are in the 'Owners' group with Full Control.  They are having issues in adding users to other permissions groups which have been set up.

They don't see the 'New' selection all they see is 'Settings'..  Some of the folders have unique permissions which I'm unsure why this is.  I have deleted this for a particular folder to see if that rectified the issue.  It didn't

Any ideas why the Owners permissions is not allowing them to add new users to permission groups???

Can you go to group "settings" and see who is the owner of the group?

Make sure to set the owner of group from group settings to Site Owners group which will all site owners to add new users in the group.

Thank you for you solution.  It's probably the only place I didn't look 

It worked as it had a user name not a Group name....
