Title: Usergroup cookie problem with 1.1.8
Post by: cq7string on May 20, 2009, 11:25:02 AM
Hello all,

I'm running 1.1.8, and trying to edit a user's account to make him an administrator. When I go to change his profile, his email address and password are saved with MY info, instead of his. If I save the changes to his account, his password goes away and his email becomes mine.

How do I go about simply promoting a user, without changing the rest of the details?

Thanks much!

Welcome to SMF.

You should be able to change the primary membergroup to Administrator without having to change anything else.
