I did that, all the right things are installed in the sql database.

and I still can't just set a user as an admin?

one thing that I may be doing wrong...if I set up a new admin with say the name "user". This name being the same as their forum sign in. Then assign a password for them.

Then do they have to still go to the www.mysite/admin.php page to log in as admin? or should it let them automatically be signed in when they log into the forums?

(I just tried this on myself, I got logged out and figured out how to get back in)


if this is the case I guess I could always create admins, I was just understanding it wrong.
