Topic: Administrator with normal user rights

I'm using the latest version of punbb. Lately, there was a new administrator (along with several others that already were admin) assigned to my forum. The problem is, that this admin does not have admin-rights, just user rights. With other accounts/ administrators is nothing wrong.

Hoping I have clarified it enough - do you know how to fix this  problem?

Re: Administrator with normal user rights

You'll need to provide a link to the forum and a bit more specific detail than that wink

She cannot log on to the administrative functions - in the menu bar nor the footer (eg, delete topics) and therefore cannot perform things like delete topics, close them, etc.  There is no link on the top with 'admin'.She can log in, post topics etc, like everybody in usergroup can.

Sorry - she = admin who appears to have only user-rights.

Re: Administrator with normal user rights

Yes, I get that. But you have a bunch of people listed under the administrator usergroup. Could you give me the username of the user who is having trouble? wink
