Super Admin

(1/1)

generalsportsforum:
I think a great idea for smf to include in there future releases is a super admin profile like when they install the script the first profile can not be deleted or altered no matter what.

MrPhil:
How would that be an improvement over what exists now? If you grant too much power to others, or are careless about editing, isn't it your own fault? Whoever has the ID and password to the hosting account is, in the end, the super admin. They can still modify anything.

Orangine:
To be honest, if anyone will be in a position to delete accounts (i.e. other admins) or have access to template files, they can easily delete the "SuperAdmin" just by inserting one line of code and bypassing all the protection. The idea is good, but not possible to implement.

Kindred:
well, it's is POSSIBLE

it's just not an actual, realistic protection against anything....
