New users with the position "Administrator"

[GadgetGeek]

Well...

I can see nothing wrong, really.

In "Reserved names", "Match case. If unchecked, search will be case insensitive." was checked, so people COULD register as "ADMIN", "administrator", "ADMINISTRATOR", etc. if they wanted to. (I've changed that).

You are saying with the NAME admin, ADMIN--- etc.. right ?

I am saying that they are logging in with a MEMBERGROUP as ADMIN....  not their name...

I'll leave the next one up as admin and alert you, how's that ?

But, I see that you have eight members awaiting approval (All Spammers) and none of their names are "Administrator".

I also registered, using another browser as "TEST".

TEST didn't have the name changed.

So.......

All seems fine, to me.

Thanks K@,   can I email you a screen shot of the last two Admin logons as .bmp ?

No, it's OK. I'll take another look.

BRB.

There's obviously some problem with one of the mods that you've got.

There're some incomplete tabs, in Admin, which should be labelled with the stuff that a mod should be showing.

Soooo....

Did you install any of those mods, just prior to this Admin thing happening?

You guys are lucky..  You understand the back end of this software.  I have a partner that does installs and mods and things for me.  I just chimed in on him,  he is at work but he may have a second to answer your good question K@.

If I had FTP access, I could probably tell.

But, I ain't and I can't, properly.

Although, it looks like the last one added could well have been PrettyURLs, funnily enough.

I'm beginning to hate that mod...

I've just disabled it.

See if that cures it.

[kat]

Thanks again K@, and Illori.. I saw that bvsweeney was online on my board, he musta got the message ?

Not from me...


Hang on a minute....

They are listed as an Administrator in the panel.

Do you mean in the "Users Online" panel?

If not, which panel?

The layout/configuration of the board has not changed much.  I did update two mods (Stop Spammer/ReCAPTCHA) as a result of the issue that we are experiencing.

What about my last question?

[kat]

Tum-ti-tum-ti-tum...

[bvsweeney]

What would you like me to clarify?

[Illori]

which panel are the users showing up as admin.

[kat]

Exactly.

[bvsweeney]

...in the Members panel, sorted by position.

[kat]

You mean here?

http://285foodies.com/forum/index.php?action=viewmembers

[SlammedDime]

here: http://285foodies.com/forum/index.php?action=mlist;sort=ID_GROUP;start=0

And also in the admin panel where it lists the forum admins.
