Need help

[13 johanna]

I have opened a new forum...
My son opened it up for me( Hes way more computer literate)
I am having trouble understanding the admin board....
Is there a section with walk through instructions?

Also... I have assigned two other members to also be administrators...
There were a few things that were posted by them that I wanted to delete  but I get a drop down saying I can  not delete this post...
I have to contact a moderator or admin, to do this !!!
I am the main administrator !! Its my board !!! why is this  option being denied to me???

Also the box on top
Type the letters shown in the picture
Listen to the letters / Request another image
is so  hard to read,,, if were registered why is this necessary?

Hi, there are lots of documentation available over at http://docs.simplemachines.org/
and you are always free to ask if there is something specific you would need help with.

Also... I have assigned two other members to also be administrators...

This sounds alarming, are you sure you still have admin rights? It is not a good idea to give administration powers to people you don't trust at least a 100%.
There is a way to recover your admin rights, if you have lost them - but it is not too easy
if you don't know exactly how things work, and how to access your database and so on.

This as well is an alarm call - I believe an admin should not see the Captcha verification at any point, other than as a guest - or as an example image in the Admin settings.

EDIT: Or if you were talking about this site with the Captcha - that is to slow down a spammer wave we have had recently, and after 10 posts you will not see it anymore.
