I deleted myself by accident (I think) [admin]
Basically the scenario is this:
After I created my admin account and obviously tweaked my Forum, I decided to create 2 other user accounts to test out all the options (etc). I then decided to delete the two accounts that I had used for testing.
Then, what I am presuming has happened is my admin account was deleted along with it.
Don't ask me how, cause I am new to Forum creating (etc).
When I try (and I have done so numerous times now) to access my account as admin, my password now does not seem to be registering as being correct.
Here is the error message I get:
You have specified an incorrect or inactive username, or an invalid password.
How can I access my Forum again? @_@
Please help.

Hello,
You could try to access your forum via the utilities.
https://www.forumotion.com/en/utils/
And if you cannot get into them, then read the thread

I hope this has helped out

Now this is strange. I am now noticing some of my Forum missing.
Someone is deleting bits in my Forum. WTF?
I did have two categories in my Forum. Now there is only one.
So, it looks like that someone has illegally gain control over my Forum.
Please someone help me ASAP. I am hoping that my email is still registered, that way I can prove that the Forum is under my name!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: I deleted myself by accident (I think) [admin]
^_^ I figured it out. Nevermind.
I did not realize that if you give yourself a user name, you are no longer 'admin'.
Basically, I now realize that you don't sign in as 'admin' if you have given yourself another name.
Thank-you for your quick reply. I appreciate it.
Great support.
NOTICE: This post is SOLVED!
