Main Admin and Admin

Forum URL: (private)

I have been granted Admin status by the Main Admin of the forum but I suppose there are differences? The Main Admin is absent and hasn't replied to my request for full Admin powers. What's the procedure to address this issue? Thank you.

aza11, yes there are a few powers that are not available to you as being a member of the Administrator member group.

Since the main admin has recently logged in to the forum, we cannot consider them as being absent. And they would need to be the one to expand your powers.

There is a process for transferring forums, so if your admin is no longer interested in running the forum, this would be an option for them: Forum Admin Account Transfers

You do have enough powers to effectively manage the forum. Was there some task or function you wished to do but couldn't?

Thanks! Yes, I would like to grant admin powers to another member as well just in case I'm not around any more! It happens when we less expect it...

Oh and the Main Admin has recently logged in but hasn't posted or sent me a PM, which is sort of frustrating.

aza11, unfortunately we would not be able to assist with setting up any additional forum staff at this time.


FYI - I've sent you a PM.
