Hello Everyone,

I have an additional admin username that I use when working/browsing (cloaked) my forum and never post using it. I'd like for it to not show up on the Forum Leaders page.

Is there a way for me to maintain this username as an admin, but not display it on the Forum Leaders page?

Firefly suggested I ask over here. Any advice on how to make this happen would be greatly appreciated.

CP » User Groups » Modify » Administrators » [edit] » Viewable on Show Groups? » Set it to NO

Thanks for your response Nuno, sorry for not making myself more clear. I don't want to disable the feature for all admins, only one. Firefly said there would be some hacking involved (showgroups.php).

oh i c
yes then its a hack :D

Couldn't the extra testing admin be put in a new usergroup that doesn't show on the forum leaders page? Then, you just give that new user group admin priveleges.

Nuno, if all else fails, your suggestion may be used. Everyone knows I'm the admin, so there's really no need (other than my ego) that I be listed on that page.

Amy, I've not created a new usergroup before. I'm going to play with it now and see if I can resolve this.

Thanks both of you.

Hi Destee, remember me? :)

Anyhow, in showgroups.php, replace this:
with the following:
Replace YOUR_NAME with the hidden admin's username, and that's it.

Haaaay Firefly !! Yesss I remember you !!

This works perfectly! Thank You Very Much! :)

Thanks Everyone.
