My forums recently crashed so I had to restart them. Everything is fixed except for one thing: Admin5 is not a member and I don't know why. I re-uploaded the file but there is still no Member #1. Please help.
Btw, I think this is a great site and I hope to use some of your hacks here once I figure out how! ^_^

Don't you have any other Admins? Not Admin5? You aren't supposed to keep it. If you have other admins just ask them to make your username an Admin or you can go to your member file and change it manually. In the older versions they didn't have the way they do it now where you can register and the first registered person would be the admin unless changed later.

There are 0 members though. They were all deleted and I don't know how to get Admin5 or my own username back! http://vgl.gamexscope.com/Ultimate.cgi

Is there a way I can make a member an admin by using the files I have on my desktop?

If you have your original download I think you'll need to (if you haven't already) create a "Members" directory within your ubb-cgi directory, chmod it to 777 and upload the Admin5.cgi and index.html into it. It's been a while since I've worked with this version so I can't be sure, sorry.

I think I can do that but the only thing I don't understand is the chmod777 thing.

If you have CuteFTP. Right click on the file, hit CHMOD, then select all boxes.

Everything is screwed. I did what you said and I did what the Infopop people said and nothing is working. Please somebody give me your e-mail and I will give you my ftp address and password.
