How can i get back my administrator rights. I've changed the editor rights for a user and now I've lost my admin rights. I can't do anything anymore.
Can I do something on the server with the installation files????
Thanks

Hi!

What do you mean, you lost your admin rights? You can't log in any more? Does it tell you your password is wrong?

If you explain what exactly happens we can try to help you.

My first clue would be you reset the option "Forbid creating entries". Search the forum for "no_create" and/or "right_publish", as you might need to reset those options via MYSQL.

Best regards,
Garvin

I've searched a bit and now I've created succesfull the file fixright.php.

This is what I get:

What now pls????

Hi!

Which fixright.php did you execute?

Do you have phpMyAdmin access, did you check the 'no_create' option in your serendipity_config DB table for your authorid?
