Just wondering as I used the name of psycho and can't find out how to change username. I presume it's in the script now and must be edited in there? I have created an Admin username and granted Admin rights but is it possible to rename?

You must set the new admin as SuperAdmin, by changing the proper line in config.asp

Const intAdminMemberID = 1

Then login as the new SuperAdmin, change the name, logout, restore that line in config.asp and login as the old admin with the new name.

Thanks I'll give it a whirl.

Would i then have to run setup again to create the super admin and set password?

No need to run setup.asp. If you have already created the new admin account, all you need is to change the admin id in the line I told you needed changing in config.asp.

There is another way which may or may not work for you. Use the Badword Filter to replace "psycho" with whatever you like. It will replace all instances of the word "psycho" on your forum including your username.

I'm trying to do something similar. I have a question about the initial reply.
Do I need to change the line Const intAdminMemberID = 1 ?
In my config.asp file, that's how it looks before I make the change.

keller18, you do need to do that. Please keep the same subject in a single thread.

I don't mind I was reading that post too. I haven't tried it but the move to the new server worked out in the end.

I do. No point in having two threads dealing with the same issue.
Glad you fixed your problem.

I tried this and yes it works but if anyone used psycho in the forum they would get whatever the replacement was. Also someone could register with the same username as the replacement for psycho then it could get confusing!

Ok gotta do it the other way.

Point taken. Yes Emails now get to hotmail hopefully I won't have to activated anymore accounts.
