I need a little Admin help

[Quest4DSS]

I had a partner on my website.
It did not work out between us, the guy on his way out moved me down to moderator and then deleted himself.
Is there a way to reset the admin password or do I have to do a reload.
Thanks for any help you can provide me.

In your zip file from vbulletin, there is a script to help you get in as admin. It's in the extras folder. You'll have to upload that and use it.

Hi Amy, I am not the biggest brain so I have to ask...
How do I run the getadmin.php file?

Thanks

Upload getadmin.php (it's in the 'extras' folder of the zip file) to your forum directory and run it from your browser. Select one of the user names you use to access the forums. Then promote this account to Admin. After this, delete getadmin.php from your server immediately.

thanks for that info :)

I was just thinking what if you gave another admin or
mod server cp, ftp and database access and this happened
what a bummer that would be :surprised:
