Full Version: Disable lost password for super admin
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Hi,

I would like to disable the password for super admins, or the UID #1 so if your email gets hacked and they get your account on your forum and reset your password, you will be hacked on your site too.

So does anyone know how to do that.
The chances of your email getting hacked are very slim if you generate a complex password.

I would suggest just making an email just for your admin account, and generate a 10 code password.

(then just keep the password in a safe place)

But, I like your idea. Hope someone can figure out a way to do this for you.
ok, thanks for helping.
Also change the admin 's folder name and remove the link from the user panel. So even if someone got hold of your account they would have a hard time finding your acp. But if you get hacked through the server that won''t help as they can see it.
Enable 2 step authentication on your email account. Don't let your email account get hacked in the first place.
