I seem to have a problem. I'm the admin of my new forums but when I hit the MOD setup button it tells me I have to be the forum admin to access this page.
I am the admin so could someone please tell me whats the problem?
This is because you have to be the super administrator of your site to be able to do this. Super administrator is the person who actually creates the forum, user number 1 is usually super administrator, or you can change this in config.asp:
Const intAdminMemberID = 1
Change one to your current username, e.g: if your username is 26, it would look something like this in your config.asp:
For the reasons Faizan stated above. Only one member (normally the first one, but can be changed in config.asp) has "super" admin access which is rquired to run things such like the MOD Setup routines.
