I'm new to the WebWiz forums. I've read a lot the past week on this forum and that helps a lot. Thank you all for this. But I still have some questions. So, I hope I haven't missed a posting where these questions were possibly already asked.

 

First. My forum setup had a standard admin user. It's no problem to use this user and log in to the admin control panel. That works okay.

But, I registered a new user and made this user member of the adminstrator group. When I login as this user, I can see the admin icon (for log in to control panel) in the upper right of the forum. But, when I use this icon to login, I get the error that username or password is wrong. I use the same password with this user as for login into the forum. So, what do I do wrong here?

 

Second, a small question.

In the Private Messenger the first screen gives an explanation about Inbox, Outbox and New Message. But below the Outbox explanation there is an explanation about the Buddylist. I can not understand why this explanation is on this place. To me, it should be with the Buddylist option. Am I missing something here?

 

Third. I don't want to use the ranking system. So, it would be my wish not to display the star icons below the username / group. Is this possible?

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

 

About the admin login, perhaps it indeed has something to do with the username.

The username here is 18 characters long.

Because I noticed that when creating a private message and using the option to get the name from the buddylist, and choosing this 18 characters username, only the first 15 characters were copied. And this gives the errormessage that the username could not be found.

 

I have made a new translation of all the text used.

In the Control Panel with editing the Profile there is a short text with the Signature box that I can't find to translate. It is the "(max 200 characters)" text. I couldn't find this in the language files.

The same for the Memberlist. The username "Guests" I can not find it to transate in my own language.

 

 

 

 

Sorry, this line isn't. I scanned all language files for this textline, couldn't find it.

 

And how about the issue only 15 characters of the username being copied from the buddylist?
Is this possible related to my admin login problem?

 

 

 

 

That's a pity. But this indeed solves the problem with the login as administrator.

I never got a message that the username must be 15 characters or less and it gave me no problem with normal login.

 

Please your response on the one textline I can't translate because I can't find it in the language files. If it is there, can you tell me where to look?

 

Sorry, another question.

Is there an option to make the admin account not to show up in the memberlist? I didn't see it in the memberlist of this forum, so what did I miss to make it not visible?

 

 

 

 

 

'If new reg don't show everything
   If ((blnLongRegForm AND strMode = "new") OR strMode <> "new") then

%>
   <tr class="tableRow">
    <td valign="top"><% = strTxtSignature %><br /><span class="smText"><% = strTxtSignatureLong %>&nbsp;(max 200 characters)
     <br />

 

I don't want to make changes in other ASP files. So I think it's best to request the Web Wiz people to put this specific text also in the language files.
