IPB problem

[Hermoine22]

Hey Guys
I was configuring my invision board and well i accidently locked myself out of adminCP by changing permission for mods not to access the CP i didnt realize my acount was under moderator because i had to make a new one after locking myself out before lol. Then i deleted every account and only mine remained which was a mod after so now i cant get in to the CP, what can i do to go back? or do i need to reinstall?

You could upload a backup of your userbase before you messed with the permissions on the forum.

How do i do that?

Did you create a backup of your user base before you deleted everything?

 

[Hermoine22]

I dont think so

I'd personally ask at the IP.Board support forums. They may have a tool you can upload - although i'm not familiar with IPB.

Just change your permissions back in phpMyAdmin

As Chris said then you should just change your permissions in phpMyAdmin. To do this you simply log into your cPanel account. Open up PhpMyAdmin and then go to the relevant database. Once there find the table within the database holding all permissions then use an SQL command or something to edit the current level to that user.

I am not an expert on SQL commands but I am assuming thats how it would be done!
