How to add a user via the ftp?
 

What file is it that this is done in?

Thanks alot.

Shameless bump, I cant find it anywhere :(

I don't understand the question. You can't add a user via ftp. There is a file in the "Do Not Upload" folder that will allow you to change a registered user to an Admin - I think that is your tools.php file. You will need to add that via ftp, then register a new user, use the tools file to change that user to an admin, and then you can go from there. Is that what you were wondering about?

you need to back your site up this could have saved you the trouble. check with your server host, your host could have backed it up mine does. and yeah like Lynne said.

Sorry for not expaining.

Someone has hacked my VB and changes my password. This is the second time it has happend.

When I said user, I meant admin. Is there not a way of adding yourself as a super admin to an ftp file?



Thanks for your reply so far/:up:

You can edit your 'includes/config.php' file to specify yourself as being uneditable - so your User Details (Password, etc.) cannot be changed through the AdminCP.
