When I made my forums, I am the administrator. There were Join date problems with this administrator account, so I registered for another account and assigned him to be Admin, using my first Admin name. I want to delete the first admin from the memberslist, and I am unable to. Can someone tell me how? Thank you.

The forum will not function without the main forum admin account which is hard coded into many parts of the cdoe and also has features that secondary admin accounts will not have.

It said that my first admin account joined October 03, 2003. How is this possible when I just made the forum yesterday? How do I change this to June 20, 2005?

2 Questions:
 
There is also a Guests Member. How do I delete him?
 
Also, how do I open the database and edit the Join Date manually? I'm new at this, so please tell me.

There are two built in account with web wiz forums, the 'Admin' account and the 'Guest' account.

Both of these accounts are required in order for the forum to run, if you delete either of these accounts many features of your forum will not work and you will get errors.

To edit a database manually it need to be opened in MS Access for the Access version, or connected to through Enterprise Manager for SQL Server.
