Edit Admins!

Posted: Thu Dec 11, 2008 8:50 am

I have searched the forums and tried all that I found, none of them seem to work.

I was able to add 1 admin, I need to add 1 more for right now.
I used Edit Admins, made him Super User, put PW in for him, saved admin.
Went to HTTP Auth scanned for new admins - now heres the weird part - It doesnt show that htrs a new admin added, but once I click on Auth List the admin is there and Protected, but his PW is not encrypted nor can he login as admin, keeps reloading the admin login page.

My 1st admin went in without a hitch, pw encrypted she was able to login with the PW i gave here and edit her account back to her regular PW.

I drop the added admin from nuke_authors in DB, retired to add, nothing worked, edit in DB to say "God" - still can't login as admin.

Deleted his user account and had him re register and tried that as well.
If a Mod or admin here would like to login as me PM me here and ill send info to login as me.

Please I need this resolved it's driving me crazy.

TY in advance! Holla!!!

Try turning httpauth off and see if he can login then. That's on the main Sentinel admin page. When you say "keeps reloading the admin login page" are you talking the httpauth page or the nuke admin login page?

Nuke admin login page, I will turn it off and see if that works. I'll post back later TY fkelly.

ok didn't work, I logged out of God account and tried logging in as him hes not online, but I did PM him and asked for him to try since its for him, may I ask would that fact that he uses a "-" in his name would that affect admin login?
I know the "_" doesnt because my other admin has 1 in her name.

I'll ask him to use user name change in Your Account to use the "_" just to see?

Last quest - I have my site set to send me info when anything is posted or member joins. All emails are sent with the Subject "me" how can I fix that so that it shows the site or something so I dont accidently delete it?

Ok I found that by him using "-" had a issue with him being able to login as a admin - I changed his "-" to "_" for his admin name and he was able to login.
I also made me a account with "-" in it to test to see if could login with that name as admin. Wasn't able to do so, but by changing the admin name and using "_" I was able to.

TY! Holla!!!

Not sure if thats a bug or just my site. Holla!!!
Using HHTP Auth On or Off did nothing.
