Ok, I have a website and not sure which version I have so hoping that someone might know. Here is the exact scenario.

I wanted to change the God users name, not password. I went into the "admins" area in the administration area in the website, changed the name to what I wanted, put in the password twice, pressed save. After that, I cannot enter the webpage. Says "Illegal Operation". I tried to go into the cpanel and went into PhpMyAdmin then found the ravennuke then Table: nuke_nsnst_admins then updated that username back to what it was. It will sign in but then I go to the "blocks" area and then it takes me right back into the Admin Login area. Any ideas..thanks a bunch

Well for a start, the nuke 'God' (superuser) admin account is only found in the nuke_authors table.
I'm trying to think where you would have to enter a password change twice, only the forums that I can think of but it's late and I'm tired so I could be wrong.
What exactly was you trying to do and why? This might help.

I fixed it. Just went into cpanel, ravennuke database, then nuke_authors, then browsed and saw the incorrect name for the god mode and then changed it back to what it was. Now it lets me sign back into the God mode admin.
