Hey,

I was messing with my new forum last night, and I set up an aotomatic promotion a bit wrong.

I set up this promotion, so that new members would be put in a 'Limited Users' group - that would limit their ability to use the more advanced features of the forum, until they reached 10 posts - then they would be granted 'Full Membership'

Anyway, The mistake I made, was - I set up the promotion so that it would promote a user from ANY USERGROUP to 'Full Member'.


Once my postcount hit 10 posts, I was 'promoted' to a full member, hence me losing my access to the ACP.
I don't know how MyBB is set up MySQL wise - so I couldn't change anything there Sad

Help is greatly appreciated Smile Huh

In PHPmyAdmin try this query:

Quote:UPDATE mybb_users SET usergroup=4 WHERE mybb_users.uid=ID LIMIT 1 ;

ID = Your user ID number
Usergroup = Considering Default Admin number is 4
