    I go into my control panel and I select the user I want to change priviliges for I change the option to Admin, I save it, IT DOES NOTHING! When the user tries to log in he STILL HAS NO ADMIN privilages. HELLLLP!

    To make that person to have to privileges as an admin,
    USER GROUPS >> Group Administration >> ADMINISTRATORS ( the one that says HIDDEN GROUP, the very first one ) >> click the MODIFY icon >> then INSERT HIS/HER name in to the GROUP MEMBERS.

    I asked batmmannn about that, to find out where he made a mistake. Perhaps I should quote, but we wrote at the same time... Mr. Green

    That added member should show up in the group, once you added it as a group member in it,

    I think you need to set up rank.
    Go to: Admin panel>Users&Groups>Rank administration>Add a new rank>Type the name of the rank (Administrator)>Choose Set as special rank:yes>Save
    Next go to the Admin panel>Users&Groups>Search users end search for a use>Go to modifi an user>find Rank Title and choose Adimistrator.

    Hello,

    Kole017, giving someone a rank is just an image to their profile, no privlidges Wink

    Batmmann, to add someone to the Administrative group, simply add them to the group with the gold crown in groups administration
    Admin panel >> Users & Groups > Groups administration > Find the group called "Admin" ensure it has a gold crown next to it then add member member/s there Smile

    But what you have been told above is basically what I said, I just added in the gold crown part to help you figure out what group is the administrative group.

    I know that.
    But Batmmann said that he already put a member in group Administrators. That should be the end of the story, but he said that users have no privileges. What exactly don't have I don't know, Batmmann should better clarify his problem.
