I have a number of questions.

1. Can you change the Admin account appearance name - I keep getting a script error when I try?

2. Can you remove the Admin account from appearing as a moderator on specific forums? I haven't found out how to remove any of the moderators yet.

I have a few more, but that will help me get started.

Thanks!

JP

How are you trying to change the admin account display name? What exactly is the error you are getting?

Assigning a moderator is done through the control panel. In the 6.4 series it's User management > Assign a moderator.

The admin is listed as the forum moderator if no moderators have been assigned to the forum.

I see how to add a moderator, but how do you remove one - and specifically the Admin?

If someone is assigned to a board when you edit the user, one of the options is "Remove from moderator list". This will allow you to remove a moderator. If noone is assigned to a forum, then the main admin is the moderator by default, and there is no way to remove them from this list as it's generated for display on the fly.

Thanks for the help! I have the add and remove moderator option figured out - what's weird is it removed the Admin on some of the forums where I added moderators and didn't on others.
