Just installed 6.2.1.1 (Linux), and have 9 members, from 1 to 11 (with 2 & 10 having been deleted). I wondered if I could manually assign or change a user to be #2, so I looked around in the ubbmembers directory on the server. It appears that if I wanted to reassign (for example) user #11 to be #2, I could do it this way:
-rename the 00000011.cgi to 00000002.cgi
-edit the memberlist.cgi and move the line for user #11 into the user #2 slot and change the "00000011" at the end of that line to a "00000002"
-edit last_number.cgi if the last number used is now different
I haven't done it (yet), but was just curious...
Would this be the correct way to change the users number? Is there a better way? Is it a bad thing to mess with those files or the user numbers?
