    Solved Co-Admins

    Post by Warhawk360 September 26th 2011, 1:41 am

    I apologize for not knowing much about this so I can't give very many details, but I've seen some forums that have a Co-Admin rank along with the regular Admin rank, and as far as I know both groups have access to the Admin Panel. How do I give groups permission to access the Admin Panel?

    Thanks in advance.

    Only the original administrators group has access to the admin panel. If you're talking about ranks then those are totally different things to groups. Wink

    It seemed people in the "Co-Admin" group on a forum I'm on could do several things an admin could, like changing the name of a forum.

    Ranks are just words and images below the avatar, right? (like Support Moderator?)

    Ranks are indeed just words and images below the avatar, you're right.

    As for your case of a 'Co-Admin' group, the original admin group could have been hidden and a fake one was on display. In light of that, the member could have not been in the real admin group and also the 'Co-Admin' group. Smile
