Hi there,
i have just bought an forum and there are other 2 admins in Admin Permissions section.
how do i delete them, i want to be the only Admin of the forum.
thank you.
if you are the owner then you can change their user group
(to super moderator or to moderator or to regular member)

visit their profile in forum admin panel & change the group

user profile can be edited through users & groups section

Have you changed the server passwords?
  • console panel password if VPS
  • root password
  • MySql password (especially if you have phpMyAdmin)
  • SSH keys
If you have purchased it, and the above advice isn't working for some users, it means that there is a super admin out there.

Open: /inc/config.php

Find super admin line, and put your uid in it ONLY.
