Topic: Admin got banned!?

Uhm.. Strange thing here. One admin got nutz and uhm... banned me from a forum running on my webserver.
Now, uh... well, how can I regain access?
I mean: I have php code/SQL database code and all stuff here.

Looking for a good game?

Easy, if you have FTP access go to forums/cache/bans.php and find your ban, delete it and then re-upload. smile

log into phpmyadmin (if you have it) and delete the record w/ your name on it,  or change your name (and email addr) to the guy who banned you.

Re: Admin got banned!?

The full answer is a combination of both previous posts wink
First you should delete the row banning you from the bans table. Then delete cache_bans.php from the cache folder. smile

And then proceed to ban that admin.

I'm not banned. It seems I'm "locked". I can't change the language to English...
