Strange problem with admin in forums

Hangin' Around Joined: Aug 02, 2004 Posts: 36

Well I have one admin who does not show as an admin in the forum, I cannot set him as admin nor can i set him as a moderator. I have no problems making any ohter members admins or moderators only this one guy. He has always beem an admin and mod before then all of a sudden lost his status. He is still set at user level 2 in the db and can do all admin related things except make himself a mod or admin in the forum admin panel. I dont know what happened but any help would be appreciated, like I say all other members and mods and admins are fine, the problem is with only one particular user.

This usually happens when one restores a db or imports one from standalone phpBB, user group id's get messed up so i ran one of two fixes for perm problems and it solved the issue, for anyone else having similar problems you can tell them i have those at nukeresources, they can search for private forum and use fix #2.

Thanks again chat I dont know what I would do without you!!
