chen, i did this:
i created 2 admins, userid 1 and 2.
i created 1 registered user, userid 3.
now, userid 1 can edit all users and userid 2 can edit all users except the ones listed in $caneditadmin.
i tested all and it works perfectly, in my test board, with the code above. you try it and let me know please. thanks.

update:
i also tried
$caneditadmin = '1,2';

now all admins can perform changes.

And that's not the point of this hack, is it?

i dont understand?
i used this code:

Code:

if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['action']=="doupdate") {



  if (!in_array($bbuserinfo['userid'],array($caneditadmin)) and in_array($userid,array($caneditadmin))) {

    echo "<p>You are not allowed to edit this user</p>";

    exit;

  }

let suppose you have 4admins in your board. if you use only userid 1 and 2 the others will not be able to edit ONLY the admins.

*sigh*

Let's say you have 4 admins, users A, B, C and D.
You add users A and B to $caneditadmin (Which will not work, but let's assume it does).
Users A and B will be able to edit any users.
Users C and D will be able to edit all users except users A and B.
But user C will still be able to edit user D, and vice versa.

correct. that's what it does the code listed above. try it in your test board and let me know. it works for me.

You don't get it, do you...

That's how it works, right. But that's not how it's supposed to work, because users C and D can still edit other admins (i.e D and C, respectively).

This quote says the hack stops others from editing other admins... and that's not how it works.

If you have 10 admins and add one of them to $caneditadmin, the rest of the 9 won't be able to edit the first user, but will be able to edit one another.

i understand now chen. sorry, my 'romanian' english.
i dont care if thay can edit other admins. what i dont want is to be able to edit my options (userid 1 or others listed in $caneditadmin)...

iv tried both firefly and your version and im still geting this error:

Warning: Unable to access ./admin/db_.php in /home/virtual/site4/fst/var/www/html/forums/global.php on line 128

you are missing the mysql part on the line..
it should read it:
admin/db_mysql.php and NOT admin/db_.php
when you hacked your forum with another hack, you made a mistake somewhere.
