Full Version: Question: Admin CP/Permission
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
A month ago I had a lot to tend to and I announced that I was gonna be absent for a while so I demoted myself for that time. My other site admin demoted himself because I left and the only admins left on my forum are Assistant Administrators with limited access, not being able to add members into groups. How would I be able to regain my spot as the Main Admin?

It seems I dug myself a hole I couldn't get out of. Some help would be much appreciated, thanks.
Do you still have an account? Just not an admin account?

If you do, run this in phpMyAdmin, replacing 1 with your User ID if it's not 1.

UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `usergroup` = "4" WHERE `uid` = "1"
I'll have my friend put that together as he set up the forum. Thanks for the help, I'll notify you if it worked.

Yes, I do.
