The previous Forum administrator, has left the job and I have taken over. We are using automatic logon, and I am the top administrator.
yet when I go to Admin options, MOD Setup (Alternative MOD Setup),
I get:
There has been a problem!
Only the Forum Admin can access this page
Yet I believe I am the Forum admin, obviously not.
I know M_LEVEL=3 in the FORUM_MEMBERS table in the DB makes me an administrator, yet I still cannot access MOD option, any Ideas where I can make myself a Full administrator? |

| In the config.asp file you need to put your member id from the database - easiest way is to look at your profile on your site and use that number. e.g. your member no. here is 33492, on your forum it will be different. |

| You dont really need to go into the MOD Setup less your going to MOD the DB. |

Your account will also need to be upgraded to admin status. Unfortunately, only an admin can do this so, if the old admin didn't upgrade you before he left, you're either going to have to upgrade your M_LEVEL manually in the database or use an SQL statement to do so. Your M_LEVEL in the database needs to be set to 3.
