Trouble with admin
Hello everyone!
I have a simple problem I think but I couldnt find the answer anywhere.
My friend who is the admin of the forum granted me admin but well I have no admin rights but I see admin title.
I checked to see if he made a group called "admin" and didnt give powers but there are no groups called admin at least I dont see any. And btw I am a mod too on the forum.
Thank you in advance =)

Re: Trouble with admin
The Admin Group is Hidden?
Tell him to go to Admin Panel>>Users & Groups>>Groups>>Click the Admin Group then Modify it>>Click Closed Group>>Then add your name to the group.
This will give you the power to the Admin Panel.

Re: Trouble with admin
Well the RANK (the shiny bar) is different than being added to the Admin group.
He should go into Users and groups>
find your user name>
Click on the permissions tab above your username
and the use the drop down menu for USER LEVEL
2 options are administrator or user.
he should assign the admin one and hit save

Re: Trouble with admin
Try removing your name again and then putting it back but do this>>Admin Panel>>User & Groups>> Users>> Your Name>>Give the rank of Admin
Then Users & Groups>>Groups>>Admin Modify>> then put your name. This should work.
