Hi, and first of all thankyou to Raven and co for making the packaged version saved me a lot of trouble, keep up the good work.

Anyway have installed the latest 7.6 distro and forums installed etc, When i set it all up the God username was made the same as general phpnuke username and obviously this has carried across to the forums and everything works ok except when it displays my name in the forum whos online its not highlighting me as a forum administrator, anyone know how to correct this as new to phpbb as only used invisionboard and vbulletin before now.

Look at forum administration, configuration and the cookie domain. If it's set to "mysite.com" then blank it out or set it to your domain name. Let us know if it was set to mysite please and whether this corrects the problem.

It was set to mysite but I changed it to my domain with no effect have just blanked it out and still no effect
