I just had ruirib an admin so he could help me with a forum problem and now I wanted to simply delete him (nothing personal) and found that there are NO icons on the left column of the members table for him.

I checked the Admin account and its the same deal... I guess someone protected it so that admins couldnt be messed with but now the only way to remove or change him is to hack the db.

My suggestion.. set all admins to have the ability to fully admin ALL (including fellow admins) entries.

OR in some future upgrade... assign an all powerful SUPERADMIN.

That's not a bug, it's a feature. You can determine who is superadmin by changing line 76 in config.asp:


Const intAdminMemberID = 1


Just change the value for the ID of the admin you want.

Features are ones that allow you to do things via the interface... bugs are things you post code fixes to get it working...

There's no code fix for this one...and a good thing too. Will minimize hackers control of a forum, if they get it somehow (although this version has increased security features).

Now that I think of it, you're right... but a quick note for the future might be mention of that in the install notes so the not so keen types (like those that willingly jump from aircraft) will be able to make the change.
