You need to include a link to your forum and the version running in your first post!


If you are the owner of that forum. I dont believe you can be demoted like this unless you are giving members your details. Even then i'm not sure it can be done to the forum owner.

You'll need a forum restore.

Sure can, if you make someone an Admin, and they demote you, then you made a mistake.

To access User#1's account settings and save you need their password though?

Thats what i thought. Has an admin of my forum when i change something it always asks for my details so i would have thought that would be the same for other admins aswell. I find this abit crazy to be honest Surely this could be changed so forum owners accounts can't be changed by other Admin members at all.
