Hi all,

 

I had a bit of a disaster moving a site (just small) Sorted it all but couldnt get in with the host or admin credentials. I set up a new user, changed the databse details to make it a super user, that was easy enough, but how do I make an account just have the admin permissions, I know its probably obvious but I acnnot work it our. Basically I need to set up another admin account?

 

Thanks


nat

You'll want to create a new account, then put that account in the Administrators role for that portal, you can do that by going to the Users icon in the control panel to create the user. Once the user is created in the users list click on the two "heads" that look like the MSN messenger logo, that will show you the roles that user is in, from here you can add this user to the administrator role.
