    In progress transfer of founder

    Post by azwiz November 18th 2014, 3:02 am

    We are not sure we are reading this correctly .

    1) replacing the e-mail to the new replacement.?
     What ? replacing who's email to what ?

    2)The previous founder can allow change his/her username by "Admin". ?
     Allow change of username to now be Admin ? Or allowed to be changed by other administrators ?


    3)it is sufficient to give the password to his/hers new replacement member  "Team Management".?
     The new founder ( replacement ) will now be using the password " Team Management " as his password ?

    We are having trouble interpreting these terminologies .

    Here's the official guide. https://help.forumotion.com/t81878-recovery-or-change-founder-of-an-account

    ► He/she must change the e-mail on the forum and Founder Tools by replacing the e-mail to the new replacement.

            ►The previous founder can allow change his/her username by "Admin"


    ► Finally, it is sufficient to give the password to his/hers new replacement member  "Team Management".

    The original founder will need to change the log in information and email address for the founder account to what you want it to be.  Then give you the information to log into the founder account.  Also the original founder will need change the information in the forum utilities.

    Once the founder has changed the username and email to the replacement member and in the forum utilities . 

    Then the replacement member will have two identities .

     Does he then delete the 1st one ? 

    ( we havn't got that far yet ) he is having trouble figuring out he interpretation of the steps , as I am as well  .

    There's an identity for the founder's utility tool, and an identity for the forum.

    When the original founder gives you the founder account, he/she will not be the founder any more.  There is only one founder account.
