Oh God HELP!!
 

Well, it looks like I accidentally changed my Admin account to "registered user". No I have no access to the Admin panel!

Is there a fix to this?

Can the forum be 'reset' back to a day ago to void that change?

Thank you for any help. I hope this is fixable!

I wanted to add: I have another Admin account but when I log into the Admin Control panel with that account I only have 4 options:

-Announcements
-Moderation
-Statistics&Logs
-vBulletin API

So there is no option to go in and change my original Admin account back to an Admin account!

I think tools.php will fix this, here is something from an old post that I think will do the job.

When I look at my vBulletin folder on my server I do not have a "Do Not Upload" folder. If I remember correctly the installation instructions had me delete that folder after the forum was set up. Maybe I'm wrong.

So then do I need to re-download the vB software to get that folder back?

Thanks!!

It's in the original distribution folder when you download a fresh copy of vbulletin from vbulletin.com, just download a fresh copy from there and it will be in the zip file.

Ok I have re-downloaded the forum, opened the do-not-upload folder and uploaded the tools.php file to the AdminCP directory.

Your next step is to "point my browser to tools.php"

I don't just type in tools.php in the search bar right? I'm not sure what you mean by "point the browser to tools.php"

I really appreciate the help and I hope this works!

Point your browser to www.yourdomain.com/youradmindirectory/tools.php

Going to try it, I am in the same boat as OP.
