How the Heck am I being Banned? I'm an admin!
I just noticed I couldn't subscribe to any threads in my own forum and I kept getting this Vbulletin message:
You have been banned for the following reason: None Date the ban will be lifted: Never I then went into admincp and "View Banned Users" option and noticed I am on the permanent ban list including 2 of my other admins. How could this be? I tried lifting the ban on myself and the other 2 admins and it would change me into a registered users and lock me out of the control panel. This sucks cuz, I have to use my tools.php..just to get back in. Anybody ...Please Help me out! -ant |
did you create the forum?
I might be wrong, but in config.php you define the 'main' admin, and this user can't be banned or deleted. If you were made an admin and didn't start the forum, then you can be de-admined, banned, deleted, etc as I said, i'm not 100%, but thats what I think... if you did create it and you are the leading admin, then I have no idea what happened... |

Yup I created the forum, I'm a little new to VBulletin...so I don't know by default all admins are suppose to be on the permanent ban list? I just can't subscribe to a thread without getting a message...saying i'm banned?:confused: |
Check your config.php file in the includes directory and make sure you are set as the superadmin there.

Yup checked it already and everything is set to "1" which is my userid. Still can't subscribe to a post.:tired: 1) I disable all pluggins to troubleshoot. No luck 2) Checked my usergroup settings and set everything to "yes" for Admins. No luck |
what about checking the forum permissions??

It removes me as an administrator and locks me out of the admincpanel. This is when I have to use the "tools.php" to get back in and reset everything. Weird huh?????:confused: :confused: |
ok create a dummy user and make them an admin with full privillages log in with that username you create and un ban your username and set your original username ant0nio back to admin, worth a try
seems you may have created a secondry usergroup for admins if lifting a ban puts you back as a registered user |
