Full Version: Changed permissions of admin

Hi,

I've recently installed mybb and was playing with the permissions.

I stupidly ticked "NO" for admin cp access *DO'H*

Is there anyway that I can make myself admin again or am I to do a fresh install?

Thanks
Kirsty
Hi,

So I take it that all you did was change the permissions of the Administrators group, so they can no longer access the AdminCP? (but you're still an admin, right?)

If so, you'll need to edit the DB (use something like phpMyAdmin) and go into your usergroups table. Look for the usergroup, with a gid (group ID) of 4 (admin group), and, for the value, 'cancp', change it from 'no' to 'yes'.
If you need further help, just post back.
