Topic: Locked out
Hey guys. I selected to put my Forum in maintenance while I worked on the style, and now I can't log back in. Is there a special way for the admin to login in while it's in this state? Thanks.

Re: Locked out
It doesn't work for me. I'm using 1.2 and used the method above but it kept showing the maintenance page.
Where can I manually edit the SQL database?
I tried to edit the value of o_maintenance... whether it was 1 or 0 it doesn't make a difference.
Re: Locked out
Man.. I had to delete everything in the "cache" folder in order to get it working. Now I have to remake the categories again...
Re: Locked out
ok... if you are really locked out, follow these steps:
Connect to your SQL database and browse table "options", look for "o_maintenance"
Change it's value into 0. Then go to the "cache" folder of your forum and delete everything in it except index.html.

Re: Locked out
even when you delete the cache it won't affect your categories
