I'm currently setting up a friends clan website for him, although I'm still new to setting up sites, but I'm having a bit of trouble with the forums. I go into the user management and permissions part of the administrators panel for the forums to set the admin and moderators. But my problem is with that. I can set a user as a moderator, but when I try to make them an admin it doesn't take. Please if you can tell me what I need to do please reply back.

Thanks in advance,
BigHoss

Go to admin panel -> user admin / permissions -> enter user name -> lookup user -> set user level to administrator at the top.

Thanks a bunch JV. It worked that time for some reason. Maybe when I set the database up the first time something didn't upload right. Anyway I've got it working.

Thanks again,
BigHoss
