Sorry, you are not allowed to edit administrator permissions.

If you think you should have permission to access this page, you will need to edit the $config['SpecialUsers']['superadministrators'] variable in the includes/config.php file.

To allow the administrators to access this page, edit the variable to include the user IDs of those administrators should have access, separating each user ID with a comma, like this:

$config['SpecialUsers']['superadministrators'] = '1,25,57';

To allow only a single administrator to access this page, simply add that user's ID with no commas, like this:

$config['SpecialUsers']['superadministrators'] = '1';

can someone help me pleaseeeee

Edit the line

in includes/config.php. Enter your username and save it.

what do u have to enter the username in here ['SpecialUsers'] and same username in here as well ['superadministrators'] ?

i tryed it but is not workin can u help please

You have to enter the user ID not the actual user name...so you would replace the '1' with your user ID # so say your user ID # was 6 the line would look like this...

oh so in here say my username is ['DjRowdy'] and here ['DjRowdy'] and here my username contans 7 letters and so like this = '7'; right ?

Nope. You have to enter your userid.

is it like that or how do i find my user id :S

but how do i find the user id please

oh is it /forum/member.php?u=13 so is ['SpecialUsers']['superadministrators'] = '13';
do i have to put my username in thoese two boxes ['SpecialUsers']['superadministrators']

If that is the link when you click on your user name then yes your user ID is 13 so the line would look like this... all you change is the user ID # NOTHING else...

You can also find your user ID by searching for your username in your adminCP... it would look something like... User: nirav (id: 13) on the top of the page

no is not working please help me

So what did you actually put ?

i putted this $config['SpecialUsers']['superadministrators'] = '13';

Well that's formatted correctly, so either you haven't uploaded it properly, or you are not userid 13 (or some other mistake I haven't thought of).

Is userid == 13 in the Administrators usergroup at all?

what u mean i dont get it ?

some on here got msn add me admin@tamilsourcex.com please

Is that user in the Administrators usergroup? Ie. is he an admin or did you just add the id of a regular member as superadmin to your config.php?

yes that was a normal member and i just made him as admin so if anything happen to the admin username i can use that but now i cant is not letting me edit the admin premission

How did you "made him as admin"?

As which user do you try to edit the Admin permissions?

yes he is in admin usergroup

Lets get this straight...you gave user id 13 superadmin permissions by entering this line in the config file...
Now are you trying to grant user id 13 full admin permissions from another admin account???
Or are you trying to use user id 13 to grant full admin permissions to another admin account???

im trying to trying to use user id 13 to grant full admin permissions to another admin account

help please
