This has happened twice now?
I have 1 global moderator, and when ive made a new group (Guessing) my global moderator goes back to being a moderator only.
I'm not sure whats causing it,
but for it to only happen twice its either.
1. Making a new Group?
2. Copying permissions from one forum to another.
Its something that i'm doing not very often.
But i also dont notice it straight away, i will watch for it now, but it could be something else too?

I did have the same issue (especially after the last patch) I took out ALL mods from ALL forums saved... then added all the mods back to the forums they were assigned and it took out the double,triple (and more) times certain mods were listed as well as fixed my ability to keep my global moderators.

7.4.2 I did have the same issue (especially after the last patch) I took out ALL mods from ALL forums saved... then added all the mods back to the forums they were assigned and it took out the double,triple (and more) times certain mods were listed as well as fixed my ability to keep my global moderators.
Dunny So to fix this i have to remove all modeators from all forums ? 99 forum someone's having a laugh. Is this the only way? As ive just gone through removed a global moderator from being listed 9 times in each of the forums he's tagged as a moderator too. And - because i haven't done the above that he looses there global moderator status and i have to add it again. I hope i don't have to remove all 15 moderators from various forums, its a mine field as it is.

okay ive done as you suggested and it seemed to work ! Not so fast. If you go to your global moderators profile in the CP change him to a Global Moderator. It starts up again. Duplication and also loosing his status.

Ok update. I had to play with it again. When I added a global mod.... seems if you want to upgrade them to GB then REMOVE any mod privs that one mod has in any forum. (they are the only one that needs to be removed.) Then submit.. give global mod permissions and add specific forums for that mod again.
Trick is do not give mod privs back UNTIL you set them as Global Mod, THEN do the mod privs.
It happened to me again and I decided to try something a little easier first and that worked well and is stable (at least on mine).
And until Rick works his magic touch.

Another quick to addon just as info.
IF you have to add another global mod you will have to remove ALL those names with Global Mod privs for it to stay "fixed". So before you add (or remove) a global mod. Remove all forum mod privs for all your globals.
I THINK that it has to do with Global mods automatically getting moderator rights in all forums they have access to. So Rick if I may suggest maybe making it so that if the permissions are there, they just auto-add to the list (so that they are already shown as a forum moderator in the moderator listing) I think this is ultimately the reason why they are getting added again and again, mainly because the permissions get updated but it doesn't look to see if they are already present as a moderator in that list. *shrugs* Just trying to help.

I'm working on tracking this one down. Have a Moderator in a few forums. Make him a Global Moderator via his (CP) profile. Return to the Moderators Screen and just hit update. He duplicates, and he's no longer a Global moderator.

found the buglet in /admin/domodmanage.php query:
// Grab all uids that are already moderators or administrators
$query = "
SELECT USER_ID,USER_MEMBERSHIP_LEVEL
FROM {$config['TABLE_PREFIX']}USERS
WHERE USER_MEMBERSHIP_LEVEL='Moderator' OR USER_MEMBERSHIP_LEVEL='Administrator'
";
It checks for existing mods/admins, but it does not check for global mods. Replace it with:
// Grab all uids that are already moderators or administrators
$query = "
SELECT USER_ID,USER_MEMBERSHIP_LEVEL
FROM {$config['TABLE_PREFIX']}USERS
WHERE USER_MEMBERSHIP_LEVEL LIKE '%Moderator' OR USER_MEMBERSHIP_LEVEL='Administrator'
";
And it should fix things up.

For people who already have a database which is infected with multiple moderators, this will be the fix:
Open /scripts/postlist.inc.php
Search for the line SELECT t1.USER_ID,t2USER_DISPLAY_NAME (Line 229 ?) and replace it with:
SELECT DISTINCT t1.USER_ID,t2.USER_DISPLAY_NAME
Do the same with showflat.inc.php

i don't consider that a solution, robje. it's a bandaid and should be temporary..
ideally the actual DB should be fixed in the admin cpanel..
