How Do i Change The Main Admin Username

PostAuthor: itunes66 » Sat Jun 24, 2006 7:56 am

There is No Easy Way To Do this and i know there are more than one DB tables that hold the username so is there an easy way to change it or can some one tell me all the tables that hold usernames, besides phpbb_users

The easiest way to do this is turn on "Allow Username changes" in ACP>General Admin>Configuration, then change your username in profile. If you don't want your users to have this ability just turn it off when your done.

when i do, it says the username has already been taken and i checked the phpbb_users table and it has not, its also a username i use on new installations but i did not want to do that because i had already upgraded everything to phpBB 2.0.20
