This is stupid, but I just banned myself.

[Conbud]

I was banning them stupid spammers and bots that post the online casinos and somehow banned myself. I have access to my ftp, can someone point me in the direction on how to fix this..

Thanks

If you have access to phpmyadmin you can look up the ban database and remove yourself from it or install the starfoxtj admin toolkit (linked in my sig below) and unban yourself in there.

Cool, Thanks a lot. 8)

Ok, I just did the toolkit and it says I'm not banned on there. But when I go to my forum it says I am. How do I pull up the banlist in phpmyadmin?

Thanks

acsess your ftp files go to templates - admin and admin_ban download the file and edit it and re-upload it..

In templates/admin I see user_ban_body.tpl

Is that the one I edit?

Sorry for all of this.

Im not sure tpl editing has anything to do with it, doesnt looks logical to me but I could be wrong. This is a MySQL thing.

From your phpmyadmin click on SHOW. Now display many results. That are all data of bans.
From column ban_userid search your userid and delete thar row! Shall I repeat?

[spankme]

look until you find your name banned..

Can I just delete the whole banlist? If that would be easier then how to do this?

And I'm banned by IP not username.

I know my IP addy, so if that helps.

Thanks
