got code q&a, remove ability other users view administrator in user list?.

you need tweak bit adapt roles , capabilities, much changing meta_key , meta_value values. i've added check $pagenow sure fire in /wp-admin/users.php.

add_action( 'pre_user_query', 'filter_users_wpse_10742' ); function filter_users_wpse_10742( $user_search ) { global $pagenow; if( 'users.php' != $pagenow) return; $user = wp_get_current_user(); if ( $user->roles[0] != 'administrator' ) { global $wpdb; $user_search->query_where = str_replace('where 1=1', "where 1=1 , {$wpdb->users}.id in ( select {$wpdb->usermeta}.user_id $wpdb->usermeta {$wpdb->usermeta}.meta_key = '{$wpdb->prefix}user_level' , {$wpdb->usermeta}.meta_value != 10)", $user_search->query_where ); } }
