Hi!
If you have "Partial User Sharing" installed, is it possible to add users at a slave site and at the same time share users with the master site?
I have read the manual for "Partial User Sharing", but have not found (understood) the information about this.

All depends the dependencies between your websites.
If you slave site is a children of your master and that physically you store the users in the master, they will be automatically added into you master and your users will also have access to your master.
When you share the users, you have to see where the users are physically stored.
On the website where they are physically stored, all the users have access.
Under Joomla 2.5, the only thing that you can do to restrict the access is to use the "group level".
Concerning the slave sites that have a "link" to the physical website, there you have the "multisite user/site" managment tool that allows you decide on which website has the access. This tool can only be used from the websites where physically the information is stored.
So check with the JMS Tool menu / table tabs, where the user information is stored.
Put your cursor over the link icon and it will display where the link is pointing.

Thanks for your answer!
If I understand correct, it is not possible to have some users with access to a slave site and some other users who have access to both master and slave sites.
I have 20+ sites with separate users and the opportunity for new users to register at the sites and 10 users who have access to all sites. This is why things are a bit complicated. Does it help to have "Multi-Sites Partial user sharing" installed on all sites (slaves and master). And I don't want to manually change the permissions for a new user on all sites.
