Comments.Text: Create two or three role - initially have all the user in a group "without view all contact" - Once you want a specific user to view all contact change the user to a different role - This should work

Comments.Text: This ends up giving them access to all the Groups.  What I'd like is for a user to have the ability to search and view all the Contacts but not be able to view the entire list of Groups.

Title: How do hide Groups from a user role unless they're permitted via ACL

  (Asked by: username_0 on 2022-03-03)
  
  I see that ACLs allow one to permit a user role to view selected Groups, however, something is enabled somewhere allowing all users to view all the Groups. I don't have the permission setup allowing the user role to Edit Groups... so why are they able to view all the Groups?
  
  Ideally, the non-admins would only be able to view Groups that are added via the ACL.
