We have a several admin users, and I would like to delete one of them. However, the checkbox for all admins are greyed out.

Illori

the checkbox where? you should be able to delete them from the profile without issue.

He probably means the checkbox in the memberlist in the Acp.

Maybe try changing that admin to a regular member and delete that way.

If you're having a really bad day, you can delete your own admin account in your profile.  (Don't try this at home.)

I meant the checkbox in the Manage Members | View All Members

Yes, that did the trick. I had to change the admin to a regular member. The checkbox was then not grayed anymore and I could check and delete.

I'm betting that you have a mod installed which prevents the deletion of admin accounts.
