[Solved] Remove founder user and place in new group

[SpIdErPiGgY]

Hello,

I'm securing my forum. Is it ok to remove my founder account from the administrator group and place it in a new hidden group with moderator privledge? And also remove the founder privledge from the account..

And just create a new user with full admin and founder privledges?

Would this break anything from the forum or database?

Yes that's fine. Just make sure you make the new founder first because only a founder can add or remove that ability from another.

Thank you KevC, it worked perfectly

Now I can go to sleep

You don't need to add founder to any group if you are just using it for ACP access. By default founder has full access to ACP.

I just added a new member account with founder access.
And removed acp access from my "admin" account.

So now I have moderator privileges on my main account, and acp/founder privileges on a "undercover" account.
